So I tried this and I still get the setup id error. And to answer your question I have to get SSL going but there is too much work for that tonight, and my server doesn't allow telneting without SSL (and good for them). # set up basic connection $hostip = gethostbyname($ftp_server) or die ('Could not get FRP server IP'); echo ($hostip); # this apparently only adds "ftp." before $ftp_server $conn_id = ftp_connect($hostip) or die ('Could not establish FTP connection.'); - Victor | www.argilent.com -----Original Message----- From: vic [mailto:siliconhype@yahoo.ca] Sent: Saturday, October 26, 2002 1:30 AM To: 'John Nichel' Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] ftp_problem - ... php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: ... Could this be the problem? From the pho.net documentation on ftp_connect(): " I think what some other posts were trying to say which may need clarification is that in PHP 4.2.3, ftp_connect("myhost.com") was failing most of the time, except it would work like every few minutes. The fix is that ftp_connect seems to have a bug resolving addresses. If you do: $hostip = gethostbyname($host); $conn_id = ftp_connect($hostip); It seems to solve the problem. (Other users referred to an ftpbuf() error... not sure what that is, but this should fix it.)
