PHP Code:

<?php

$getip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];



echo ('<Center><b>You Shouldnt Be Crawling Here Your I.P Is Now Beeing Banned via Our Firewall</b></center>');



print "$getip is now banned from this server";



exec("sudo /usr/local/sbin/apf -d $getip");

exec("sudo apf -r");



?>

now i know the user apache has rights to apf & iptables so is there any way i can make it give me an error to see why i would go wrong

If you specify a second argument in exec(), it'll return the output in form of array.

www.php.net/function.exec

That might help or tell you what's happening.

im afriad its been a while since i touched up on my very basic php and carnt seem to understand how to include the output to see if theres an error

[Nico]

Eg:

PHP Code:

exec("sudo /usr/local/sbin/apf -d $getip", $output);
echo '<pre>', print_r($output, true), '</pre>';
