Borghunter 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2006 First of all that is illegal if you don't own the server yourself and is not appropriate if anyone should attempt to reboot any web server, as I know, most of the people on this forum use Trap 17 and i'm sure they would not be impressed if someone rebooted their servers.

xJedix 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2006 Want to make a new virus ? Thats a bad idea.... talking about making viruses on a forum such as this....anways, to get on topic... The only way I can think of, of how to do this would be to use the "exec" function in php. You would have to figure out the executable for shutting down a computer and also know the parameters for shutting down your computer. I used to know these but I can't remember them right now. This would only possibly work with windows, I'm not sure what you would do for linux.Also, note what borghunter said.... If you decided to try shutting down a server that is not own by yourself, then you will most likely get banned from that place and possibly other consequences.

Plenoptic 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2006 Well, to me it sounds like someone just wants a script and doesn't want to pay for it or whatever. I have truly no idea how to pull this off. I hope you don't plan on using this for any way that isn't legal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted March 1, 2006 I think it best that this topic get closed before it gets out of hand and somebody gets an idea in their head.Having said that, I think the best (and only) way to re-boot a server is by way using its native control panel.Any other way and you are inviting trouble.Topic closed with a reminder that illegal topics are grounds for suspension under the Terms of Service here at the Xisto Forum and most likely your Hosting Account would be suspended as well ...
