FTP commands in PHP

[Flux]

I'm using GuildFTPd and am somewhat confused by php.net's description of ftp commands.

I've seen plenty of samples of putting a file on the server, taking one off, setting file permissions, logging in, connecting, but nothing resembling administration (beyond the file permissions [chmod]).

Can someone (preferably who has/knows how to deal with GuildFTPd in particular) help me out with a sample script of, per se, adding a user to the ftp server and/or giving him/her fiolders to work wtih, or something...?

so far what I have in script format are snippets that can be learned in a minute from the ftp commands section of php.net, and all the rest is a concept in my head that I can't translate to script (hence the thread).

Any and all help is appreciated as usual :D

Flux,

Could you post an URL of a sample FTP-related script? We'll use it as the basis of a GuildFTPD user declaration PHP script.

no, not really.
I don't know the actual functions that work to add users, delete users, edit users, etc.

I can give the url for the ftp section of php.net

Ah.

GuildFTPd's documentation is in text files, with the program...

Ugh, so many simple obvious answers.

Thanks for being patient with me, aprelium. (And thanks for the cookie help).

Now that I have these commands:

*Add USER:
*SITE ADDUSER %d[Group:] %d[Usename:] %d[Password:]
*Description: Add user (will add user to the given group it finds in the ftp server)


*Add GROUP:
*SITE ADDGROUP %d[Group:]
*Description: Add group (will add an empty group with the specified name)


*Add PATH:
*SITE ADDPATH %d[Group\Name:] %d[LocalPath:] %d[VirtualPath:]
*Description: Add Path (will add a path to the specified group\user with the given local & virtual path with only read & list rights)


*Change Login Amont:
*SITE CHLOGINS %d[Username:] %d[Amount]
*Description: Change Maximum Login Amount for a certain User name


Allow Anonymous login:
SITE ANON ALLOW
Description: Users using the anonymous l/p will be able to login


Deny Anonymous Login:

*Change Login Pass:

*Disable User:
*site disable %d[User:]

*Enable User:
*site enable %d[User:]
*Description: If the Siteop has disable the l/p, this option will enable users to login *again. Useful for temporary accounts such as upload/upload if u don't want ppl to keep on *uploading too much.


*Who's online:
*SITE WHO
*Description: Shows you a list of users currently logged in


*Kick a User:
*SITE KICK %d[user id]
*Description: After doing the SITE WHO u can select which user to kick.

*Message Admin:
*SITE MSG %d[Message]
*Description: Send a message to the administrator

It is quite straightforward. However, how do I use them in php? Is there some ftp_query function I can use (like mysql_query, which I've been using a lot lately, except for FTP servers)?

Ah, indeed. ftp_site.

Again, thank you for being patient.

If those are command line parameters, you can use the exec() function to perform those actions.

I figured it out, and I don't have to deal with command line parameters, but thanks anyway, and I'll keep that in mind for when I do have to.
