Hi there everyone,
Is it possible to control user access to directories on Linux via PHP and MySQL? I mean the basic
authentication which pops up a username and password, is it possible that it gets this info from a
database rather than from the standard Linux user scheme? (Phrasing may be wrong as i'm new to
unix, sorry :-)
Slightly OT, but is it possible to run certain Linux Commands via PHP? I'd like to write a
script where I can do CHMOD and CHOWN via a secure web interface rather than having to login via
SSH.
Thanks everyone, have a great day.
Regards
Chris
