Hi,
I need to use secure ftp for some file transfers.
Secure ftp is not supported in php until 4.3. We are running php 4.2.2.
Our system administrator says that php 4.3 is a beta under Red Hat and that the installation is very difficult.
We have a work around but it is pretty clumsy. We can issue a system command for sftp and pass a text file as a batch list of commands. This would require a separate batch file for every function (check to see if the file exists, if it does transfer the file, check to see if the transfer worked, if so delete the original) with every file (at least 20 files, maybe hundreds). I would like to find a cleaner and simpler solution.
Anyone have any ideas? Suggestions for how to do this in php 4.2.2 or suggestions for an easy way to get 4.3 installed with Red Hat 9 would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Mitch
