Hi. Many things. I am trying to create a web hosting control panel, so I'll need to be able to update Zone files, add email accounts, etc. All of which require the user to be "root" How can php do this? How do I get the scripts to be able to have root permissions? Robert <EdwardSPL@ita.org.mo> wrote in message news:<3C456EFC.FA22A471@ita.org.mo>... > Robert Abbate wrote: > > > > Hi.
