php ftp functions response messages

Is it possible with php FTP to get or retrieve the welcome message the server sends?

Something like this you get from FTP clients

Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...

Response: 220 Welcome to the OpenDreambox FTP service.

Plus is it possible to get the response code like 220 in that case? Are they even FTP standards those codes?

I don't think you can do it with the ftp_* functions, but there's an alternative approach:

$socket = fsockopen("ftp.microsoft.com", 21); 
echo fgets($socket); //read the welcome line
fclose($socket);

You can try ftp_raw,

This function Returns the server's response as an array of strings. No parsing is performed on the response string, nor does ftp_raw() determine if the command succeeded.
