but be aware that on most servers the openbase restrictions prevent from
reading outside your own directories.

Just to clarify, did you mean those functions are limited to the directories
inside your normal web space? I usually try to rely on the built-in PHP
functions than using exec() type commands. Thanks!

Not sure if it's me you're asking.. but
I had trouble finding the refs as google jacks up searching for those terms
as there are underscores involved
here:
http://us3.php.net/features.safe-mode
and
http://www.php.net/security-note.php
the built in php fns won't get you outside of your base dir on most servers.
you get opnbase errors. those same servers will also most likely stop you
from using exec() to do similar as well.

Thanks for the reply. I took a look at the php.ini file along with the links you
provided and cleared things up for me. Thanks for the information.
