$file = fopen('ftp://user:pass@vax/DIR$NAME:filename','r');

./configure \
	--with-apache=../apache_1.3.9 \
	--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
	--with-ftp \
	--enable-track-vars

No php3.ini.

Pasting the first arg (ftp://user:pass@vax/DIR$NAME:filename) into Netscape's location box works fine. fopen('ftp.....) works fine with other (Linux, DigitalUnix, AIX, FreeBSD) machines.

Retrieving the file with the new ftp_* php functions works, but I want the retrieved contents shoved into a var, not a file.

We are sorry, but can not support PHP 3 related problems anymore.  Momentum is
gathering for PHP 5, and we think supporting PHP 3 will lead to a waste of
resources which we want to put into getting PHP 5 ready. Ofcourse PHP 4 will
will continue to be supported for the forseeable future.

in the upcoming  php 4.3 the fopen wrappers for http and ftp are using the cURL lib if available, which is far more feature-complete than our own ftp- and http- implementations could ever be ... chances are high that it will work with that (if you are still interested)

Additional: curl streams won't be in 4.3.0, but in a subsequent release (we're waiting on a couple of extra hooks in libcurl).

Better late than never I guess. This bug report was from 2 years ago...
