i'd go for PHP if a script needs to mess around with webservers, forms 
with databases.  plus,  you can use PHP anyway as a shell scripting

killed when their timeout expires. dont know how to override that yet.)

sure.  use a private IP space for the internal network.  and dont allow 
IP Forwarding on that machine.
