One way (You can replace your ftp_rawlist with any other file listing
function that returns array):

if (ftp_rawlist($connectionId, '/') === false) { //reconnect}

At first I was going to say to use get_resource_type($connectionId) == 'FTP
Buffer' but then noticed that after the regular FTP timeout, the resource
is still the same. is_resource will still consider the variable a resource
even after a timeout.
