Re: [PHP] reading a remote directory

I have to read a directory (on a windows machine) from another box (a
linux machine) and I thought that I could set the handle to the IP
address of the windows box, but that does not work. Do I have to open a
socket or is there another way?

Thanks!

You'll need a webserver to read the directory, as there isn't any program that listens
by default. Or you could start up an FTP server and open a connection to that.
