The following functions can be used to run shell commands. http://www.php.net/manual/function.exec.php http://www.php.net/manual/function.system.php http://www.php.net/manual/language.operators.execution.php However, I'm not quite sure what you're after as far as the reference to telnet goes, and what you mean by logging in as root--can you clarify what you're trying to do? P.S.--not to say RTFM, but most of these questions would have been answered by the manual, unless I've misunderstood.
