Hi Steve, > What I think you're missing is that if you put jsse.jar on your > classpath, you can use javax.net.ssl with java 1.3.
maybe i don't explain well, sorry. The three classes of com.sun.net.ssl that are used for implement FTPS (in the way that Paul did and I modified, maybe there is another...) are... com.sun.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactory (http://java.sun.com/products/jsse/doc/apidoc/com/sun/net/ssl/KeyManagerFactory.html) com.sun.net.ssl.SSLContext (http://java.sun.com/products/jsse/doc/apidoc/com/sun/net/ssl/SSLContext.html) com.sun.net.ssl.TrustManager (http://java.sun.com/products/jsse/doc/apidoc/com/sun/net/ssl/TrustManager.html) This classes in JSSE are only in the package com.sun.net.ssl, and although in JSSE 1.0.3 there are a packege javax.net.ssl, it doesn't contain this classes, it contains javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket, a classes soon used, to implement FTPS. > And the commons-net team would prefer to go that way because Sun says that > com.sun.net may go away with some future release, but not javax.net.

This three classes in JDK 1.4.2, were move to javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactory (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/KeyManagerFactory.html) javax.net.ssl.SSLContext (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/SSLContext.html) javax.net.ssl.TrustManager (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/TrustManager.html) But if you download for example JDK 1.4.2 and look inside of (jre/lib) you'll find jsse.jar, the jar where still are com.sun.net.ssl. Sun, still mantain compatiblity with JDK 1.3. And still in JDK 1.5, you'll find jre/lib/jsse.jar. But when jsse.jar desapear, i offer to modified code... In other way if use javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactory , javax.net.ssl.SSLContext, javax.net.ssl.TrustManager, ftps don't work under JDK 1.3. I hope explain better, this time. Then, make that you consider appropiate...
