(1). Can PHP be used to FULLY interrogate Microsoft WMI objects?
(2) If True, which is the best version of PHP to use?
(3). If, True can some one please provide me with some useful / educational links where I can obtain valuable information / examples / tutorials on how I can use PHP to interrogate WMI objects?
No, PHP is really a Unix thing, just happens to be psuedo ported for Windows.
WMI is strictly windows, not even JAVA can access it since it only exists within the windows runtimes and objects. About the only overlap is in ODBC or LDAP.
