Thanks all - it would seem that php is failing to set the passive mode to
true - I can get around it temporarily, but need to find a more permanent

Does anyone have any experience as to why setting ftp_pasv to true fails?

you could try '~/' (or maybe just'~') as the dir name which equates to the
'the current users homedir' when you in a shell - no idea whether that is
even allowable
when going in via ftp but might be worth a shot though - given what you have
been saying in your thread one would hazard to guess that the ftp server
your
working with is a little borked (but that a gut feeling).

RE: [PHP] FTP Problems
Thanks for the reply Chris.
How would you suggest displaying the current "home" directory for the user?
I've tried / and indeed the "real" directory name on that particular server.
Funnily enough, I've also just tried a generic php/ftp script tool, and it
works on a third party server into the one I'm trying to connect to, but not
from the server I'm working on!
Is there anyway in which php needs configuring for certain connections?

ftp_nlist requires a directory name. A blank string is not a directory name.
