Are there any specific server configurations or settings that need to be in place for PayPal IPN to work correctly with PHP?

To ensure PayPal IPN works correctly with PHP, you need to make sure that your server allows outgoing connections to PayPal's IPN endpoint (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr). Additionally, you may need to configure your server's firewall settings to allow communication with PayPal's servers. 

// Example code to configure cURL to allow outgoing connections to PayPal IPN endpoint
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

// Process the response from PayPal IPN endpoint
// Add your code here to handle the IPN data
