PHP FTP - Change Default Root Directory

Post by koolsamule »

Hi Chaps,

I have a basic PHP/FTP Application, which will be accessible to some of my company's freelance workers.

Code: Select all

// FTP Credentials
$ftpServer = "www.domain.co.uk";
$ftpUser = "UserName";
$ftpPass = "Password";
 
set_time_limit(0);
 
// Connect to FTP Server
$conn = @ftp_connect($ftpServer)
or die("Couldn't connect to FTP server");
 
// Login to FTP Site
$login = @ftp_login($conn, $ftpUser, $ftpPass)
or die("Login credentials were rejected");
This will take me to the root of 'www.domain.co.uk', but it will give everyone access to everyone else's folders, which I don't want.

Freelance workers have a 'freecode' which is unique to them, so I'm looking for is to change the default 'root' directory to 'www.domain.co.uk/'FREECODE''.
I've tried this already, but I get a connection to FTP error.

Is there anyway of getting round this.
