[function.ftp-get]: failed to open stream: Permission denied

[eluser]Jay Logan[/eluser]
I'm trying to download some remote files with the FTP library extension by Phil S. but I keep getting this error.

Code:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: ftp_get(/home/user/tmp/awstats.domain.com.conf) [function.ftp-get]: failed to open stream: Permission denied

Filename: libraries/MY_Ftp.php

Line Number: 22

The error obviously explains what the problem is but I don't know how to fix it. I've CHMOD the folders and files to 777 and other variations to see if that would help. It didn't.

Any thoughts?
