A way around this would be:
install sudo, write the command above to a script, set root execution rights
for the script to everyone, call "sudo script" from php.
But I am not really sure, you wanna do this.
Do you really think it is a good idea to have a web server execute something
as root?
Another way would be to have a cron job that outlput the needed information
into a file and you read this file from php.
Advantages:
- more secure
- less cpu time needed with many page hits
Disadvantages:
- more cpu time needed with few page hits
- no current value, updated only after some time
