Hi Tobias and all, I just wanted to inquire once again how close Net_FTP is to having support for ftps using streams? This will be a huge bonus for PEAR users as 1.4.0 will allow them to remotely install using ftp, and if Net_FTP supports ftps, then it will in fact be perfect. My host, for instance, only supports ftps, and not ftp protocols.
Well, it looks like the built-in FTP functions don't support ftps. And the user notes for ftp_ssl_connect say that a connection to port 21 will leave it unencrypted...which seems strange to me. Anyone tried ftp_ssl_connect() to see what it works with?
The only real answer is to use streams, as fopen(ftps://blahblah) is fully supported in PHP5 with read/write/etc. simulating put and the other standard ftp functions is very simple. Greg
