Greetings all,
I'm trying to use the "opendir" command on Win32 in a CGI script. I'm
using Apache 2.0.48 for Win32.
The "openDir" command works from the CGI script when I try to open a
folder located on my local system. When I try to "openDir" a network
drive using the CGI script run through Apache, Apache gives me the
error: Can't openDir... However, when I run the CGI script in a DOS
window, the command works properly.
Is it possible to use "openDir" in a CGI script, run through Apache?
What do I need to do to get it to work, is it a permission thing with
the Apache user?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Alex.

Yes, of course.

It's safest to specify the full path to the directory.

Thanks for the post, I figured it out in the end...
Apache 2 runs as a service in Win32. The apache2 service runs as the
default system user which doesn't have any network permissions at all.
The best thing to do is to set up a new user with the domain
permissions you need, and get the service to log on as that user.
Drat, should have figured it out sooner!!!

I want to see from php-file list of files which are in directory, where

Hello,
I am writing a script that opens needs to get a listing of files in a
directory, print that listing to a file and use that file as a quasi ftp
control file. My problem is that when I print the filenames found via the
readdir I also get the . and .. (current directory and parent directory)
written in the ftp control file which causes my script to stop since you
can't ftp . nor ..
Here's my logic ....

Greetings,
I hope my problem is easy to fix, I'm pretty new with php - but I am
getting weird results with the opendir() function. It may just be a
path problem, but I don't see which variable to change.
here are some tests I did to see what was wrong:
$blah = opendir("blocks");
while ($file = readdir($blah)) {
