ID: 2186 Updated by: evan Reported By: jwalsh@ipdex.com Status: Closed Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Assigned To: Comments: This doesn't seem feasible since traceroute and ping need to be run/SUID root. PHP is run as the same user as httpd (nobody) and thus would not be able to access the low-level network functions needed to create these utilities. Perhaps there is a way around this?
