It's difficult to say what's happenning without a lot more info, but I
can't help thinking you're making life a lot more difficult than it
needs to be: allow_url_fopen option applies to the file access
wrappers - not fsockopen - but I'd be using the file wrappers method
in preference to implementing my own protocol stack (particularly with
FTP) - but even then I'd prefer to implement it using the curl
library.
When you say it works an FTP client - I assume you are using it
interactively from the command line - try executing it from within
your script (see http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php). Note most
versions of the ftp client will happily work with input from a file
redirected to STDIN
