[help]ftp_connect failed.

[watermark]

I was trying to use ftp_connect() and ftp_login to authenticate users.

I got this error message:

Warning: ftp_connect(): php_hostconnect: connect failed in getpw.php on line 12

Warning: ftp_quit() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in getpw.php on line 20

how could this happen?

I am using php 4.3.2, phpinfo() shows that ftp was enabled.

my code looks like this:

function login_session($uname, $passwd)
{
$host = "127.0.0.1";
$hostip = gethostbyname($host);
$conn_id = ftp_connect("127.0.1"20G); -----line12 where the first warning refered

 $result = true;
 if (@ftp_login($conn_id, $uname, $passwd))
    $result = true;
else
    $result = false;

    ftp_quit($conn_id);                                -----line20 where the second warning refered.
    return $result;

}

sorry, line12 actually is

$conn_id = ftp_connect($hostip);
