Hi all,
I'm trying to copy a file from my PHP server to another server (a
home
gateway, called a LiveBox). I've used this code :
$livebox = "192.168.1.1";
...
...
...
$crontab_livebox = "http://".$livebox."/cgi-bin/newCrontab";
if (!copy($crontab_temp_name, $crontab_livebox)) {
echo "<br />Impossible to copy the temp crontab file to the
Livebox.<br
/>";
}
I get the following error :
"HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections"
OK can I solve this. Can't I use URLs with the "copy" function if they
don't
point to my PHP server (local URLs) ? How can I copy a file from my
PHP
server to another server (there's no FTP server on the destination
machine)
?
Put it this way:
If what you typed above *DID* work, what's to stop *ME* from copying
whatever I want onto your server?...
I see your point. Here in my case the server I want to copy a file on has 192.168.1.1 for IP address and thus cannot be found from outside a LAN, so the security problem is not that much important. But I agree with you and see what you mean.
You probably need to use cURL to login to your livebox, and then POST
the data into the newCrontab form handler.
OK I'm gonna look for information about that.
Thank you,
Laurent
