Trevor, Although I question your intentions for running commands over a webpage, try webmin. It has several modules (i think there is one to restart network services), and there is a custom commands section that allows you to run commands from a webpage.
Check out http://www.webmin.com. There is an rpm to install webmin quite it easily. Make sure you properly secure webmin by a strong password and access control lists, running under ssl is an even better option if want to use it over internet/public links. Cheers, Shane.
