Dear All, I just curious does PHP has the capability to access the NIS+ table in Solaris based environment such as Perl ? I'm asking this because the only NIS+ support in perl seems already outdated (it works with perl 5.003 but not perl 5.6.1), so if PHP does support accessing the Solaris NIS+ table, I'm planning to change the script from perl to PHP (this is must be accessed from the web for users account creation webpage). If PHP doesn't support NIS+ does anyone has any idea how to implement this with PHP then ? I'm thinking to use MySQL and some shell scripts to interact between PHP and NIS+ table (using nistbladm, nisaddent, etc.) Thanks
