Christophe, I see where you are coming from with that, but the purpose of this script is to remove me from the picture completely. I want someone to be able to come sign up on my site and automatically be added as a mail user and other things so that I do not need to do that kind of thing. I am looking to do like Hotmail, or Yahoo!, or Mail.com, or any of the other places do. I can go sign up on their site and immediately have an e-mail account that I can start using. No admin has to take the time to create my account for me. Does that make sense? Does that explain better why I am trying to do this? Has not anyone else wanted that functionality also?

I will also be doing a remote command to add a user to the remote system (ServerB) from the same PHP script.
If you want to manage a server via web interface, dont reinvent the wheel. Use webmin, by example. Webmin runs a mini "webserver" as root (on port 10000), and uses modules for managing users, proftp, apache, etc Of course, I dont know what you want to do. Christophe
