You don't. fopen() doesn't access the server via HTTP. It's PHP that
executes this call, sitting at the server, using the servers file system
(except when opening a remote site, but that's a different story). If you
are allowed (by means of opsys rights and PHP admin limits, such as
safe_mode) to open the file it will be opened for you, even if it is not
within the virtual web server directory tree.

You can't open a remote SSL location using fopen(). Have a look at cUrl to
accomplish this.

If you can open and read the report, there's only one more step to execute
it: use eval():
$fname = "/www/htdocs/admin/report.php"
$file = fopen($fname,"r");
if ($file) {
$code = fread($file, filesize($fname));
fclose($file);
@eval($code);
}
else
die "Can't open file $fname\n";
