This is actually two problems and a fix for either would solve the main problem.
Scenario: we are using dbm to manage user logins on apache. The problem is that the dbm functions in PHP create a file that apache won't read and apache (dbmmanage program) is creating db files that PHP won't read. (Problem 1)
Possible fix: use dbmmanage to update and set passwords, but need to have PHP pass input from form to dbmmanage. The problem is getting PHP to start dbmmanage (easy enough) then wait for output to give password, then wait again to give password again. (Problem 2)
Platform: Apache 1.3.14 on Linux with PHP 4.
Has anybody done this or know how to fix the original problem?
Thanks,
Stephanie
