To complement/summarize Arno and Angus answers, I would implement your requiredments either by: 1) Using a client certificate, which is already implemented in SSL. 2) Adding a simple custom command which would be mandatory for user to use. Commercial FTPS client will not implement that command and would have difficulties in executing it. The passphrase associated with the certificate could be hardcoded in your application. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Author of ICS (Internet Component Suite, freeware) Author of MidWare (Multi-tier framework, freeware) http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
