dl help ..

[tha_mink]

I am working on a server with limited permissions and certainly not acces to /usr/local/php4 so I can't copy extentions there. I would like to load php_ming.so via dl() but from what I see I can only load stuff from the php-config extention_dir.

Is there a way to get around this. could I do...

dl("../../../home/httpd/mysite/directory/php_ming.so");

Is there another way to load stuff without using the normal dir?

As an Apache adminster, I don't want the people on my servers to add whatever extensions they need because of serious security and perfomance issues. The permissions are set up that way for a reason. You should contact your system adminstrator and ask him/her to set this up for you. Not only is it the safest thing to do, it is also curtious to the adminstrator.
