in reply to remote directory browsing give no listing

"not functioning" isn't a description of the problem (or an error message). Say your garden hose is not functioning, is it leaking? no water coming out? red water? fire? magically suspended in air and immobile? :D

Its definitely, probably definitely the permissions :)(your webserver runs the program under some account which doesn't have permission).

    Actually "not functioning" is *a* description of the problem. It is exactly what you get from lawyers and politicians; 100% accurate and totally useless :).

    That said, I would not suspect permissions, as he is checking the return to opendir. I believe that it would fail if there were permissions problems. I would look at the unfiltered results from readdir, as well as check its return.
