Hi, FTPS is piece of cake using...
System.Net.FtpWebRequest & FtpWebResponse For SSL obviously you need to set the EnableSsl to true... but the trick is that you need to add a callback handler for the Certificate Validation. ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate(Object obj, X509Certificate cert, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors errors) { // need to handle SSL exceptions here return true; }; For SFTP... this is free and works http://www.tamirgal.com/blog/page/SharpSSH.aspx Cheers, Shane On 19 November 2010 15:32, Alastair Waddell <alastair.wadd...@dsc.wa.gov.au>wrote: > FTP(S) > > > > -----Original Message----- > *From:* ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto: > ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] *On Behalf Of *David Connors > *Sent:* Friday, 19 November 2010 1:17 PM > > *To:* ozDotNet > *Subject:* Re: Secure FTP > > > > On 19 November 2010 15:16, David Connors <da...@codify.com> wrote: > > On 19 November 2010 15:10, Alastair Waddell < > alastair.wadd...@dsc.wa.gov.au> wrote: > > No > > > > There are two types of secure FTP and you need to work out if you want to > support SFTP and/or FTPS.
