adding ftp functionality into php

Hello, My apologizes in advance if this is the wrong mailing list. I have a php module in apache which is missing ftp functionality (--enable-ftp was not used as an argument on compile time). However, recompiling php at this time does not give me other options I am looking for. I would like to add php_ftp (or whatever the extension is called) as an extension in the /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini file problem is, i can't seem to find it anywhere. would anyone know? Thanks for any assistance! Tom
