Re: [PHP] Re: PHP hangs when exec'ing SSH

Ah. Well, then my bug report is probably of no matter. Even looking further into SSH's options, there's something for controlling the TTY allocated for SSH, but it only controls what TTY SSH allocates, there is no means for turning tty allocation off completely. I was still holding out some hop

Incorrect. Setup now: Server A: Authenticates User SSL -> runs PHP -> runs SSH [EMAIL PROTECTED] Server B: Authenticates user SSH -> runs command "su" is not involved, and has not been involved- I stated in my original post, and in my last reply to you that it was only used in order for me to

Richard, I'm really not sure what you're asking here. I've created a limited access user account on a remote host so that I can kick off some things on the remote host by hitting a web page. Access to the web page is protected via SSL and user authentication. The things which are executed

[PHP] Re: PHP hangs when exec'ing SSH

I actually do care about the return code from the program, as well as knowing that the program executed and completed successfully, so background execution is not a valid option. I tried using system("ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] mycommand > /dev/null 2>&1") and got the same results. You are correct

[PHP] Re: PHP hangs when exec'ing SSH

There is no output to stderr or stdout from the script being executed. All I care about are the side-effects of running this remote program. If something fails, a numeric error-code will be returned. Ross, Since you don't care about the output from the program can you start the process in the b

There is no output to stderr or stdout from the script being executed. All I care about are the side-effects of running this remote program. If something fails, a numeric error-code will be returned. I have tried this using: system(), shell_exec() - same as backtick operator, and popen(). I ha

[PHP] Re: PHP hangs when exec'ing SSH

I'm attempting to execute some things on remote servers using ssh, using a strictly limited account created for this express purpose. I set up passwordless key authentication from the user the web server runs as to the limited account on the remote server. I wrote some PHP code which calls: sys
