Secure option for Copy Web Site tool?

Steve Franks

As I understand it the Copy Web Site tool in VS.NET 2005 sends the
username/password unencrypted. Is there an option for it send this
information encrypted instead? If not is there any way to get this similar
functionality of Copy Web Site tool to do so securely?

I'm really not using the synchronization feature of the Copy Web Site tool -
just serves as a convenient way for me to deploy the changes I've made
locally. Is there a better alternative?

Thanks,

Steve

What about FTP? We usually use Anonymous FTP with firewall and IIS IP
restrictions for uploading websites. This way no username/password has to be
sent in plaintext (with IIS, they're windows users - so broadcasting them is
pretty bad!), but we're still pretty secure :)

What is the easiest way to query a remote XML file on someone elses Linux box using secure communication?

by: Dan V. | last post by:

Situation: I have to connect with my Windows 2000 server using VS.NET 2003 and C# and connect to a remote Linux server at another company's office and query their XML file. Their file may be updated every hour or so. How can I do this easily? I would like to use secure communication even encryption if possible. I would query and insert locally only the newest records found in that XML file to an xml or MS access db.

Add Option to OptionGroup

by: Thelma Lubkin | last post by:

I've been unable to find code for adding an option to an option group. I did find this instruction on a site called softlookup.com: "If you want to add another option button to an option group, click the Option Button tool and move into the option group (it will become selected) and click." But I'd like to copy the specs (size, font, etc) for an existing option button and its label rather than starting anew and fighting to make it...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
