Could this be the problem?
>From the pho.net documentation on ftp_connect():
"
I think what some other posts were trying to say which may need
clarification is that in PHP 4.2.3, ftp_connect("myhost.com") was
failing most of the time, except it would work like every few minutes.
The fix is that ftp_connect seems to have a bug resolving addresses. If
you do:
$hostip = gethostbyname($host);
$conn_id = ftp_connect($hostip);
It seems to solve the problem.
(Other users referred to an ftpbuf() error... not sure what that is, but
this should fix it.)

Can you ftp to the site from the box that the script is running on (via
command line or GUI client)?
