How do you run this ? Which user ? if its done via Apache - you can't run useradd with the apache user name. if you run it from command line make sure you are root. Nabil wrote:

I used exec and shell_exec and system I tried all the following but with no hope exec('useradd -d /home/all -g wahtever -s /bin/bash newuser') or die ('not done'); exec('/usr/sbin/useradd -d /home/all -g wahtever -s /bin/bash newuser') or die ('not done'); shell_exec('useradd -d /home/all -g wahtever -s /bin/bash newuser') or die ('not done');
