Even if it is the same server you might not connect with "127.0.0.1" as the source IP address - especially not if the other web site's host name resolves to any other IP address than 127.0.0.1. Your tcp connection might still be performed via the loopback-interface, but your source IP address might still be the one of a network interface Try to create a page on the second web site (that you want to access thorugh fopen() ) that outputs the client's IP address. You'll probably see that your source IP address is not 127.0.0.1. -- - Peter Brodersen -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
