Hi,

ftp_close() and ftp_quit() do the same job, ftp_quit() is an alias of
ftp_close().

The function ftp_close() needs the connetion ressource id as parameter
to close a earlier opened connection. Maybe you call ftp_close without
a ressource id or with a wrong ressource id, this could be a reason of
remained ftp connections.
