fsockopen - bad file descriptor

[ellisgl]

I'm trying to use fsockopen to connect to an IP of a device with the 21 port (telnet) and run some commands. When I try to run it, I get error# 9 - bad file descriptor...

$fp = fsockopen("10.1.0.12", 21, &$errno, &$errdesc);
if(!$fp) die("No connection made. Error: $errno - $errdesc);
fputs($fp, "conf\r");
fputs($fp, "vlan 2 untagged 1\r");
fputs($fp, "exit\r");
fputs($fp, "logout\r");
fputs($fp, "y\r");
fclose($fp);

do you get the error between your exit and logout lines?, and why are you passing the errno and errodesc by reference?

I had to rewrite it from what I had on another computer... igore the &\'s..
Just when when it does the \"if\" statement is it dies with that...

[ellisgl]

so it should be:
$fp = fsockopen("10.1.0.12", 21, $errno, $errdesc);
if(!$fp) die("No connection made. Error: $errno - $errdesc);
fputs($fp, "conf\r");
fputs($fp, "vlan 2 untagged 1\r");
fputs($fp, "exit\r");
fputs($fp, "logout\r");
fputs($fp, "y");
fclose($fp);

I'm also using Win 2K, PHP 4.1.1 and Apache.
