Hi,
The only FTP client that I know that can support ls is NcFTP.
Here is an example of the command line you may used :
PHP Code:
$DIR_NCFTP/ncftpls -x "-lR" -f $HOME/.ncftp/file_ncftp ftp://IP_ADRESS/DIRECTORY/ > PATH_OF_THE_LOCAL_DIRECTOY_WHERE_YOU_WANT_TO_WRITE_THE_LOG_FILE
I hope this will help you.

ftp_ssl_connect
FTP_SSL_CONNECT(3) 1 FTP_SSL_CONNECT(3)
ftp_ssl_connect - Opens an Secure SSL-FTP connection
SYNOPSIS
resource ftp_ssl_connect (string $host, [int $port = 21], [int $timeout = 90])
DESCRIPTION
ftp_ssl_connect(3) opens an explicit SSL-FTP connection to the specified $host.
Note
Why this function may not exist
ftp_ssl_connect(3) is only available if both the ftp module and the OpenSSL support is built statically into php, this means that on
Windows this function will be undefined in the official PHP builds. To make this function available on Windows you must compile your
own PHP binaries.
Note
ftp_ssl_connect(3) is not intended for use with sFTP. To use sFTP with PHP, please see ssh2_sftp(3).
PARAMETERS
o $host
- The FTP server address. This parameter shouldn't have any trailing slashes and shouldn't be prefixed with ftp://.
o $port
- This parameter specifies an alternate port to connect to. If it is omitted or set to zero, then the default FTP port, 21, will
be used.
o $timeout
- This parameter specifies the timeout for all subsequent network operations. If omitted, the default value is 90 seconds. The
timeout can be changed and queried at any time with ftp_set_option(3) and ftp_get_option(3).
RETURN VALUES
Returns a SSL-FTP stream on success or FALSE on error.
