FTP Transfers

Is there no support for FTP transfers/connections in .Net?

Ken,

In the current version, there is not, you would have to call the WinInet
functions through the P/Invoke layer or use a third-party component.

In the next version of .NET, there will be support for downloading files
from an FTP source.

Hope this helps.

Hi Ken,

No, you will have to create your own classes or use one of the 3rd party
libraries available.

Happy coding!

Yes, but not directly. You have to use System.Net.Sockets.Socket and do it
manually.

Try the .Net Indy library. FTP support is good.
