On the command line, su to 'apache' and then do cat /dev/ttyS0 Okay, if that works, run your PHP script from the command line, as apache. If *THAT* works, then I got nothin' Report it as a bug, I guess. http://bugs.php.net Though it's possible that the OS requires a shell to exist for you to open /dev/ttyS0... *MAYBE* you could try using http://php.net/exec (with "cat /dev/ttyS0") and see if that allows you any kind of access. Doubt it, though. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
