Execute script on remote server

Hi!,
I've got a problem. I ve got a server A and a server B. On server A there is a Apache. I've got a Perl or Bash script used to add an user account (username and other information about new account are the parameters of the script). How to write a php page (running on Apache on server A) that could execute my Bash/Perl script on server B.
thanks for your help,
sorry for my english

 

Hi,

$host=escapeshellarg($args);
$cmd=escapeshellcmd("adduser.pl ".$args);
$r=shell_exec($cmd);

Will it works in MS Windows ? I though this command runs command only on a server where web server stands?
I think my question is not precisly.
I want to open this php page on another computer - let's call it C - there would be a field to enter a username etc. for new account. Then I'll click OK and new account will be create on server B.

 

Your adduser.pl or adduser.sh (perl / bash) need to do a remote ssh (with key auth) and add your user.

syntax is something like : ssh host command

but you need to generate a pair of keys for ssh to work withou "keyboard" auth !
