Note Submitter: ron dot petty at unigeek dot com ---- Here is an example on how to install software using php shell_exec("cd /usr/local/src/; gunzip program.tar.gz; tar xvf program.tar; cd program; ./configure; make; make install); Now depending if your root or not some commands like "make install" may fail. This doesn't do any error checking, the reason for that is I do not know how to cd to a directory and then execute another command unless they are in the same shell. So basically, take what you type on the command line and string them together.
