Secure FTP

2010-11-18 Thread Alastair Waddell
I have just had a requirement come over my deck for secure FTP (from
within our .NET application) so before I embark on a Google journey to
hell (I hate site aggregators, but that's another story...) has anybody
got any recommendations? Price is not an issue.

There are two types of secure FTP and you need to work out if you want to
support SFTP and/or FTPS. The former is based on SSH. The latter is based on
SSL (PKI, authenticity as well as encryption). FTPS is the more
modern/'correct' (for want of a better term) one to use.

The two protocols are completely different, so your first task is to figure
out what you are going to connect to on the server end before looking at
libraries.

Sorry, I meant to add, this assumes that when you say secure FTP you really
mean a secure variant of FTP in the literal sense. There are other options
like WebDAV over HTTP over SSL.

/n Software is good. Have used their components for years.

http://www.nsoftware.com/ipworks/ssl/

Have also used CleverComponents 
http://www.clevercomponents.com/products/inetsuite/ftpssl.asp


During a project I needed NTLM web proxy authentication and /n Software 
at the time supported only basic so I moved to CleverComponents.
They worked ok but I have had some performance issues. These may have 
been rectified by now.


/n Software have full web proxy support now

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

Cheers,
Shane
