string exec ( string $command [, array &$output [, int &$return_var ]] )

Edit: for example, exec("C:\sampsvr\samp-server.exe");

The reason why i using exec is cos i using windows and windows dont have ssh or ssh2
Its a nightmare to get it working

I don't use exec() for starting anything.

Ever.

It hangs.

For Linux, I use a combination of proc_open and proc_close, and for Windows I use the WshShell COM object.
