Creating a server in PHP 4?

[timmerk]

Hi,

Is there a way to create a server in PHP 4? I see there is a server socket command in PHP 5, but I do not have access to PHP 5, just 4.

Any clever hacks? I'm trying to create a server in PHP, so that an FTP client can connect to it. (yes, I know it sounds strange)

Thanks!

It can be done. You'll want to look into using fsockopen() and fread(), fwrite(), and fclose(). I think thats going to be the easy part. Creating the message listener and having it act/respond properly to the FTP commands will be the fun part.
