FTP/SSL (AUTH SSL) (wodFtpDLX / wodFtpDLX.NET)

Hi

We need to establish secure ftp to one of our customers.

ToDay we use C++ and transfer files using FTP.
This has to be changed to secure FTP.

Our customer specifies that we have to use 'FTP/SSL (AUTH SSL)'
Does your product wodFtpDLX support that option?

Are there any special issues that we should be aware of?

Abe,

yes, wodFtpDLX supports that. Just set Protocol = FTPs or FTPSnodata and it should work correctly.

Regards.

Hi

Don't we have to load a certificate after connecting to the server when using FTP/SSL (AUTH SSL) or is that happening automatically.

Do you have an example of how this works?

Abe,

no. You need to load certificates only if server requires client-side-certificate authentication. I think this is not the case with your server. However, if you think you need it, I could write a sample. VB ok?

It would be nice if you would try to make an example. And VB is Ok.

Abe,

here's one typical example. It connects to the server using login and personal certificate (no password needed):
[code] Dim c As New Certificate

c.LoadKey App.Path & \server.pfx , weonlydo
c.Load App.Path & \server.pfx , weonlydo
Set Ftp1.Certificate = c

Ftp1.Authentication = authCertificate
Ftp1.Login = joe
Ftp1.Protocol = FTPSwithdata

Ftp1.HostName = localhost
Ftp1.Connect[/code]

But please check with server admin - if he didn't explicitly say you need private certificate, you probably don't need all of this.
