hi everyone!

I want to execute some shell command on php. I using fedora core 9. I can execute simple command as ls -l or iptables -h but I can't execute commands as service iptables start or iptables -L :facewall: :facewall:. I use user apache (default user) and I changed UID as root. What's problem? please reply soon. thks!

iptables needs to be executed as root, simply joining the root group is not sufficient.

 

You could give your apache user permission to execute iptables via sudo. Take a look in your /etc/sudoers file for examples.

 

in /etc/sudoers file has line apache ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/iptables. what does it mean? thks!
