Re: IIS & PHP configuration-PHP.ini instructions ignored
My server setup: Win2k, IIS5.0, PHP 4.0.10 running as ISAPI

Problem 1: PHP.ini settings ignored. Not too sure how to address this one. I've tried changing some settings in the PHP.ini file. Some just do not seem to take.

Example ~ there's a setting called SMTP that tells PHP what server to use. I change from the default, "localhost", to "smtp.mydomain.com" and reboot, but phpinfo() still shows localhost.

Problem 2 ~ SENDMAIL_FROM is a setting that's supposed to be a global “From� for PHP to use in case individual scripts don't specify that email header. Making a change in php.ini and rebooting doesn't make a difference in what phpinfo() shows, which is nothing! PHP.ini settings can be overridden by a function call from individual scripts, but they have to be overridden from each script that needs the functionality.

Is there a better way to force PHP to use all the settings in the PHP.ini file?

Thanks for your assistance !!!
