Softriva .com	Friday 13 October 2006 4:11:42 am I just signed up with a webhost and trying to install php. The system asked me this question Mod Php version 4.4.2 The following six PHP functions pose security risks to your VPS account. Disabling them will provide improved security, but may cause some applications or scripts to stop working. Please check the boxes next to the functions you wish to enable. -IMPORTANT- Only enable these functions if you are sure that you need them. (NOTE: You can enable/disable them from the edit menu after installation.) cmd passthru popen proc_open shell_exec system Which of the following I need?

I am pretty sure that I have seen a passthru being used for the binary files but it might have been in some extension, I am not sure. I haven't got an ez installation available right now so I cannot tell you. Greetings from Luxembourg Claudia

Claudia Kosny	Friday 13 October 2006 11:12:47 am Hi OOzy man grep or google is your friend in this case. Example: grep -r 'hello' /home/gigi searches for `hello' in all files under the directory `/home/gigi'. Anyway here the results for EZ 3.8.4: unused - cmd, popen, proc_open, shell_exec used - system, passthru Greetings from Luxembourg Claudia
