PHP Shell is a shell wrapped in a PHP script. It’s a tool you can use to execute arbitrary shell-commands or browse the filesystem on your remote webserver. This replaces, to a degree, a normal telnet connection, and to a lesser degree a SSH connection.
You use it for administration and maintenance of your website, which is often much easier to do if you can work directly on the server. For example, you could use PHP Shell to unpack and move big files around. All the normal command line programs like ps, free, du, df, etc… can be used.
Creates a tar.gz file on your server that you can then easily download...
Does anybody know if this script is preserving ownership and permissions (and time stamp) ?
Or has a tip for a script which is doing a site backup (without mysql) doing so?
