hihi all,

I'm using RedHat 7.1, kernel 2.9.6 with apache 1.3.19, php4.0.6 and wu-ftpd-2.6.1-18. I did using ftp_nlist and ftp_rawlist to list a symlink directories in my programme. For ftp_nlist, it can only list the files in the directorise. For ftp_rawlist, it only shows the direcctories itself (not . but the name of itself). I tested with the following simple script and the problem still exists.

<?php
$conn = ftp_connect("localhost");
if (!conn) exit();
if (!ftp_login($conn, 'mylogin', 'password')) exit();
ftp_pasv($conn, TRUE);
$ls = ftp_nlist($conn, 'public');
$rls = ftp_rawlist($conn, 'public');
var_dump($ls);
var_dump($rls);
?>

The result of my programme is that: for $ls, it shows all files execpt directories; for $rls it shows only the directories with it's information.

For the normally directories and the symlink files, it is OK!!

In my original programme, however, even thorugh I can't see any directories, I can still mkdir and it return success. However, I can't see the new directory. I'd also tried this test programme in FreeBSD4.4 and php4.0.6, connecting to the same FTP server, getting the same result.

Here is some additional information for your reference:

make a link:
ln -s ./public_html ./public

test programme result (2 directories missed) :

array(5) { [0]=> string(18) "public/db_test.php" [1]=> string(15) "public/ftp2.php" [2]=> string(18) "public/ftptest.php" [3]=> string(14) "public/md5.exe" [4]=> string(15) "public/test.php" }
array(1) { [0]=> string(76) "lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Nov 26 11:01 public -> public_html" }
