Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip

I've done a basic test with latest php 5.2 cvs and it works fine. You need to provide more info about your program, like is $server an IP (v4 or v6) or a hostname, the protocol used, etc..

I'm having the same problem, even after installing 5.2.
$serverip = "192.168.0.12";
$fp = fsockopen($serverip, 80, $errno, $errstr, 3);
if(!$fp)
{
	print "CONNECTION FAILED";
	return 0;
}

fputs($fp,$httpheader);
		
//get the response
$result="";
while (!feof($fp)) $result .= fread($fp,32000);
fclose($fp);

print $result;



so, the function either times out (30 second script execution limit) or $result ends up as a blank string.  the initial fsockopen call should fail, because i'm contacting an ip at which there's no http server (in fact, it's a 2nd computer sitting RIGHT NEXT TO ME and i'm switching apache on and off to test this thing).  the $serverip variable IS an ipv4 address.  i'm basically sending an http request through tcp (i've even tried prefixing "tcp://" to the ip, with no variance in result).  note that all of this code works perfectly when the apache server is enabled... it's just when it's disabled that i get these results.
