It's more like "In theory, the servlet container could provide extensions to handle FTP". In other words, containers could provde javax.servlet.ftp.FtpServletRequest/Response, and then you could write FTP servlets. But no servlet container that I'm aware of actually does it. The whole 'alternate protocols' thing was pretty much a bust (although I saw a rumor that Sun is announcing something about SOAP/servlet integration at Java One, so who knows) > I'm creating an XML file via an XSLT tranform which then > needs to be FTP'd to its destination > If I'm understanding you correctly, you don't need an FTP server, you need an FTP client. Of which there are many available. I've never used any of them, but a quick search on google using the terms "java ftp client" turned up tons of them. If you find a good one, you might want to summarize back to the list so future archive-searchers will have a good answer. -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
