But the matter is where the host permits to do such. // See the following algorithm function exec_php($host){ if (its $host that runs php as a module) { then it depends on the rights of $host if ($host is in the group of root){ $host can do any thing. } else { $host will do those tasks that its been permitted. } } } If (you are root and running php as a CLI){ you can do anything (whatever you wish) }. if (you are normal user and running php as a CLI){ you cant do some specific task like killing process. } // see the function definition above. exec_php(apache); exec_php(IIS); I think you got it. sorry for the approach. But it makes clear logic. :) Thanks. -- shout at http://shiplu.awardspace.com/ Available for Hire/Contract/Full Time
