Hi,

 

I want to built a windows php website---> connect to the linux box--->read all settings value from the .ini files->display it into the php website->user can then change the values->save the .ini file base on the user modification close the file-->for back up reason of settings, also save the values into SQL database.

 

Anyone knows how to approach this problem? What do I need?

 

Thanks


Well, you can share the directory via samba and then you can simply have access to it as a straight file. Editing and displaying a file should be easy enough, you can equally transfer that data into the MySQL (or maybe MSSQL ewww!).

 

You will find "wamp" as one of the quickest ways to install your windows/mysql etc.

 

But yeah, samba is the solution.
