dlynas Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Hi I'm trying to call the command taskkill in a script of mine. the code looks like this exec("taskkill /f /s $compname /im iexplore.exe", $output); As far as i can tell the code is doing nothing, it doesn't throw up any errors but it doesnt work either. I have tried replacing the variable $compname with the actual computer name but this dosen't work either. Any help would me much appreciated.

dlynas Posted November 30, 2007 Author Share Posted November 30, 2007 taskkill is a windows command just like ping which i have working perfectly. There is no output as far as i can tell, $output is an array and when i try and echo $output[0] is says it comes up with an error. Dave.
