To get the name of the owner of a file you can use something like this: <?php $startscript="/var/log/hello.log"; $fileowneruid=fileowner($startscript); $fileownerarray=posix_getpwuid($fileownerid); $fileowner=$fileownerarray['name']; echo "Owner is $fileowner"; ?> (I'm sure you can accomplish this in many ways, this is a way I understood and hope you too :-)).
