Try http://www.wonko.com/notftp/ if you want a ready to use PHP Based FTP client, If you are running on Unix or Open Source there should be FTP servers available that can authenticate through MySQL. > > Before I write one myself, is there a package that has already been > built that any one can recommend (or recommend against)? I tried this recently, But I discovered that this leaves users directories rather insecure. At least when being used on a web server where users could upload PHP scripts, since there is nothing to stop them from uploading scripts that modify other users files.
