Hello,
I have a series of scripts that allow someone to process a text file on an FTP server. After that's completed, I would like to then move the entire directory that they were working in, to a new directory so it doesn't get processed again. I got this to work, but it appeared the moving function downloaded the files to the webserver, then reuploaded them to the FTP server - not good 
function ftp_move_directory($dir,$year)
{
include 'ftp.inc.php';
$src_dir = $ftp_dir.$dir."/";
$dst_dir = "/media/disk/server/".$year."/".$dir."/";
if(is_dir($dst_dir))
{
return "<br> Dir <b> $dst_dir </b> Already exists <br> ";
}else{
//file('ftp://'.$ftp_user_name.':'.$ftp_user_pass.'@'.$ftp_server.'/'.$v));
$d = dir('ftp://'.$ftp_user_name.':'.$ftp_user_pass.'@'.$ftp_server.'/'.$src_dir);
ftp_mkdir($conn_id, $dst_dir);
echo "create dir <b><u> $dst_dir </u></b><br>";
while($file = $d->read())
{ // do this for each file in the directory
if ($file != "." && $file != "..")
{ // to prevent an infinite loop
if (is_dir('ftp://'.$ftp_user_name.':'.$ftp_user_pass.'@'.$ftp_server.'/'.$src_dir.$file))
{ // do the following if it is a directory
ftp_copyAll($conn_id, $src_dir.$file, $dst_dir.$file); // recursive part
} else {
$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $dst_dir.$file, ('ftp://'.$ftp_user_name.':'.$ftp_user_pass.'@'.$ftp_server.'/'.$src_dir.$file), FTP_BINARY); // put the files
echo "create files::: <b><u>".$dst_dir.$file ." </u></b><br>";
}
}
ob_flush();
sleep(1);
}
$d->close();
}
ftp_close($conn_id);
return "<br><br><font size=3><b>All Copied ok </b></font>";
I've seen a few threads on this forum that look close to this, but none with enough information to really get me started in the right direction. Like I said, the above works, but the files I'm moving can be quite large, so waiting on the down/up isn't feasible. I wanted to use FTP because I have file permissions since it's a linux box, and this way I can control the user that's doing the move. Thanks!
