Perhaps this gets more into server administration, but it is mixed so much into the php script, which is why I am asking it here.
Yes, sudo was one of my first thoughts. As far as the implementation goes though. How do you work the remote access bit? Using ssh do you use the ssl cert switch so that the www user can shell into a remote machine? Or does the sudo process actually make www the root user for a certain command and can then shell into a remote machine using the root ssl cert? Or can sudo make www into a user that can shell into a remote machine? I am still becoming familiar with sudo.
