Yes, I've tried using both absolute and relative paths. The system output is 0 when I execute, for example, "nvram show" from the php. From what I know this output means success. Although there's no output on php. Nelson Carreira

From your original post it looks like the function you want to use is passthru(). I just noticed the following note on php.net: Note: When safe mode is enabled, you can only execute executables within the safe_mode_exec_dir. For practical reasons it is currently not allowed to have .. components in the path to the executable. Could this be your problem? James

This version of php doesn't have a php.ini file for configuration, so there's no safe_mode_exec_dir. I tried to create the one mentioned in php_info() and copy the executables there but it didn't work. Nelson Carreira

Hmmm. I'm all out of ideas. James
