hi /r/PHP
i've in over my head, and have no idea where to go next.
i've semi in charge of a lot of machines, and have to do some support from time to time. i have a nsa320 that have all the files needed to make the machines shine with the newest updates of whatever they need. on the nas i've made some small *.bat files that handles which programs gets installed in which order.
my boss would love to have a small GUI on the server, and thereby presenting the install processes a bit more aesteticly pleasing.

the NAS i capable of runnig a wordpress and has a mySQL/php packet, but i have no idea of where to look to make these chains run via a browser. right now i'm mounting a specific folder as a drive on a local machine and start the process that way.

i've been told to look at php, and can see that there are some filesystem function in php 5.
but can't see how i can achieve my goal.
need your input, thanks.
