premiso Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Impossible to do without that functionality built in. If you have a php script that you can connect to write to it. But would need to be coded for an api-key if not it could be exploited easily. Or you can use SSH / FTP. But you have to have some type of functionality to allow the write method as http on it's own is generally read only.

xyph Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 There are many services specifically designed to do this. It's not difficult. FTP functions are built directly in to PHP Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/246865-writing-to-a-remote-txt-file/#findComment-1268050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbones Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 My suggestion would be to have a script on the remote server that accepted a POST, and then write to the file on its own server.
