Where you ever able to find a solution. We are running php command and exec functions from an apache installation on a shared drive. When we run the system or exec function it won't run if the server isn't using a local drive.

Error: Exec returns null with home directory on network share

Hello -

I'm running Windows 2K3 Enterprise with PHP 5.2.10 running FastCGI. I have my content served from a network share.

The problem that I'm seeing is that when I run exec('whoami') or any command for that matter it returns blank.

I can run the same file from a local folder the the exec('whoami') function works.

I've set the network share user/password up on the local security directory, changed the anonymous user account for that site to that, run cacls on the cmd.exe, enabled impersonate in the php.ini.

I know I'm missing something. If anyone has any info on this kind of setup, that would be great!

TIA!
