php/ftp overwriting files.. prob.

i'm setting up an intranet with a php-ftp connection to up and download files.
it works fine, except for the following:

the idea is not to beable to overwrite files..
so how can i setup an ftp connection, witch probit overwriting files.?
but will be able to write new files..

i use vsftpd and php 4.3.8.
now i do a simple 'ftp_put' to upload the files..

i didn't find anny good intel on howto disable overwriting.
it doen't matter to disable it on ftp-server or with php, both are ok?
does someone know how to pull this off..?

Thx
Collen.

You could set the permission of the files to read only with

PHP Code:




ftp_site($conn, 'CHMOD 0444 /path/to/file');
