Hi,
As you know there are lot of control panels lying around like Cpanel,
Lxadmin, most of them based on PHP. The control panels allow editing of
system files which requires root privileges, can somebody tell me how to
gain root privileges inside the script so that it can be useful if I
want to give my users a DNS editing interface instead of loading a big
bloated control panel.
We use an interface that writes everything to a DB. Then, every 5 minutes, a
cron job comes around and dumps the db and builds the zone files for us.
Might try something similar. It would be a lot safer then giving root access
via PHP... :)
Hmm that's a great idea. But my question is in general, suppose I get
some freelance job to write a control panel for managing httpd, etc.
Same procedure can be used ? I think so ?
