does anyone have any ideas what to do? i didn't dig too deep into
this but is it possible to implement the *explicit* ssl without
rewriting the whole FtpWebRequest class?
sorry guys, of course i meant *implicit* here :)
to make things clear: i need implicit ssl implementation.
If you really want to do this, your best bet is to write it as an FTP
proxy - but then, why not just buy an implicit SSL FTP proxy, which is far
cheaper than writing it, and use that?
While I'm here, I might as well note that implicit SSL FTP has been
deprecated for well over a year, and was deprecated well before the FTP over
SSL / TLS specification became an official RFC document. Supporting
implicit SSL FTP is a bad idea. It was a dead end before it got started.
Alun.
