VSS access
How can it be done?
Has anyone written an interface for this or know of a way to do this?
Im trying to add and create projects in VSS via php. It doesnt like it when i run the SS.exe command line version of VSS.
Thanks

SourceSafe is Microsoft's version control application. It's not a "true" version control as VSS is written to access a "local" database only. As with most things Microsoft, the storage format is closed source, last I checked. A "tool" to interact with it the database would actually directly manipulate the files as the "client" does.
If it's possible to switch version control software, I'd recommend moving to Subversion (SVN.) But I'll hazard to guess this is not possible for the foreseeable future.

No luck so far.
I have another question which would solve my problem, is it possible to execute a *.exe file on another computer from the php server?
e.g.
I want to be able to execute a file at location
\\Othermachine\runthis.exe
relative to my php server?
Obviously cant "exec('\\Othermachine\runthis.exe')" because its out of the machines scope. But is it possible to fsocketopen/curl/fopen into it?
I guess my problem is trying to access machines outside of the php server. This program will be for an intranet and everythings winxp.
