U can write a script and invoke it thru telnet...

so write telnet conn. in PHP and connect thru TN to UNIX or as I did to solaris...
than execute on it some commands like:

cd /path/to/dir/where/script/is

then execute it: ./myscript

so that works for me..

also U can write separate script FTP script to send back txt output to other machine where PHP is..and than display result simply from txt file or some other file...does not metter..
