This snippet of code works on FreeBSD, but not Windows 2000:

<? include("http://www.bunnynet.org"); ?>

On FreeBSD it works as expected, PHP will connect to the remote host, fetch the page and include it in the page it's currently sending to the client.

On Windows 2000 I get the following error:

Warning: Failed opening 'http://www.bunnynet.org' for inclusion (include_path='') in c:\apache\htdocs\test.php on line 14

I am using PHP 4.0.5 on the FreeBSD server and PHP 4.0.6 RC3 on the Windows 2000 server.

My php.ini is identical to php.ini-dist in 4.0.6 RC3, and is located in C:\WINNT\, which is the path that phpinfo() shows that PHP is looking for it in. ("allow_url_fopen" IS enabled.)

This is the expected behaviour, include and require are lang consturcts not functions, use readfile for the functionality you want.
