I have a linux server running php, and client pc also running linux. I want to read clients plain text file from php. How to access client m/c. Can any one give me step by step methods.

ex. client m/c. with following setup...

/home/data/t1.txt (its plain ascii text file.)

With Thanks.

Read up on NFS.
Read up on fopen and fread.

Plenty of examples in the manual.

Dear bretticus,

Thanks a lot, you have shown me the direction to solve the problem. I have one more problem I want to attach a weighing m/c. to my linux clients. Can I use same methods to map the client's COM port.

I will go through the subject you instructed.

Thanks once again.
