Is this possible?

Hi,

Can I get the content from a text file that is stored on another server (both servers are mine, but are not with the same FWP).

Can I read the text file, if the text file is stored on Server #1 and the script on Server #2. If yes how?

The script file may be PHP or Perl5.

Kind regards,

Is this file web accessible? It's quite easy if it is. It's still possible if it's not, but it would simply matters greatly if it was.

Perl:

use LWP::Simple;
$file=get "http://url/to/file";

PHP:

$f=fopen("http://url/to/file","r");
$file=fread($f,size_of_file_here);
fclose($f);
