RE: [PHP] fsockopen with apache auth

You should not use the <HOST> header when using HTTP/1.0 access. Also servers implementing HTTP/1.1 should work just as well with HTTP/1.0 clients. Does accessing the page work from IE or Netscape? If it does, is your PHP script running on the same machine? Cause if not, the PHP machine could be denied access to the realm in question. (by ip or name or whatever) Again, this works fine for me: ------------ function GetFromHost($host,$path) { $fp = fsockopen($host,80); /*don't know what happens on 911, but i guess it should work*/ set_socket_blocking($fp, true); fputs($fp,"GET $path HTTP/1.0\r\nAuthorization: Basic ".base64_encode("myuser:mypasswd")."\r\n\r\n"); while(!feof($fp)){ echo fgets($fp,1024); } fclose($fp); } echo nl2br(GetFromHost("mywebhost", "/mydir/myscript.php")); ------------ Check you setup, access rights, etc, there's nothing wrong with the script. cristi
