I can't seem to open an ftp file anymore (with fopen).  http files are opening fine? 

<?
$fp=fopen("ftp://anonymous:anonymous@ftp.sunsite.org.uk/README", "r");
while ($line = fgets($fp, 1024)) {
  print $line;
}
?>

I have only been using ftp servers that are capable of passive mode.

http files are opening fine.

I have tried using the latest version of fopen-wrapper.c (1.63) and it still
doesn't work.

There was a vaid ftp ref in the fopen statement provided.  I think it was parsed
out by the bug system.

Okay I think I have found the problem.  fopen does not deal with passing the
username/pasword combo for ftp:// or http:// files.

e..g

ftp://username:password@ftp.something.net/README

http://username:password@www.somewhere.com/index.html

fixed in CVS
