Description:

on iis6.0 when i call NET.exe with system or exec function get faced with an error and if it's some comlex command it gives "CGI returned bad header" error.

Reproduce code:

?>

Expected result:

      HELPMSG | LOCALGROUP | NAME | PAUSE | PRINT | SEND | SESSION |
      SHARE | START | STATISTICS | STOP | TIME | USE | USER | VIEW ]

Are you using php as CGI or ISAPI?

First lookup documentation for exec(). It only returns the last line of the output so your expectation is wrong.

Second, NET outputs to stderr not stdout which php captures. You can try exec("net 2>&1"); to prevent this.

ok i solve my problem with using MS vb script. but in my opinion PHP is for standart users. it's aim is to get reach basic users "Personal Home Page" don't get away from this point of view. according to that how a basic knowleged user can know about "NET outputs to stderr not stdout which php captures" ? at manual ist says that 
--------------------------------------
exec
(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

exec -- Execute an external program
--------------------------------------

so inconculusion 
after that exec should capture stderr also. do you think am'i wrong ?
