Very basic question: Resticted access to a folder on server.

[tabbu]

Hi all,

 

For being newbie in PHP I want to ask is it possible to give our client a username, password and with them have access for example to: ../clientX/workfile.zip. I would like to find a code that I can insert three variables:

 

1) User

2) Password

3) FTP-folder address where user can go and get the files.

 

That way all of our co-workers can use it without any knowledge of PHP. When they have their project ready, they can upload it to server and send login information to client by email.

 

I have searched and googled but I haven't found any good tools for this. But is this possible with PHP? Or should I look for other options? Are there any commercial tools for this?

 

Thank you for your time and I appreciate all the answers you can give me!

<?php
$ftp_server='server';
$conn_id = ftp_connect("$ftp_server");
ftp_login($conn_id, user, password);
ftp_mkdir($conn_id, dir/dir);
ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD 777, dir/dir');
ftp_close($conn_id);
?>

I'm not using anything at the moment, because I'm still planning this system I can use database however if it is needed.

 

Ps. Thanks for the code. That seems to be somewhat right for me. Now if I just would understand something about PHP code
