Even when I don't use socket_close on the socket resource. Another weird thing is that they stay in this state until the server gets booted. When I use fsockopen it works as expected, i.e. when I...

Hi guys, We're using the ISAPI version of PHP with IIS5.0 On some websites for some reason any php file in the websites root is given the path winnt/system32 (getcwd() returns "C:\WINNT\system32"), while files in a folder are given the correct dir.

I'm wondering how any of you might otherwise handle this? Is something like the...
