    Anyone know of a good, FREE C# secure FTP class? I found some here and on CodePlex but they're all lacking in some ways. Just wondering if an CP'ers know of a good class.

    If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

    GitHub - sshnet/SSH.NET: SSH.NET is a Secure Shell (SSH) library for .NET, optimized for parallelism.[^] Sounds like it provides SFTP, as well. Worth a gander, I would say. Got the link from here: c# - SFTP Libraries for .NET - Stack Overflow[^] One of the comments points to a codeplex page, which points to the link above. Good luck.

          I use edtftpnet. docs say secure is available though I haven't tried it. After moving to 10, I lost the ability to use my ftp client of choice (ws_ftp pro) and after trying a few free ones, decided to write my own. The edtftpnet library is well documented and easy to use.

            I have a demo of their Pro class. Works nice but they want $300 for the DLL and another $600 for the code.

                    I ended up writing my own FTP class in C# way back in around 2009 and I still use the same code to this day. It's not that difficult to write FTP, and if you have specific requirements then it's a no-brainer.

                    "There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare Home | LinkedIn | Google+ | Twitter

                      I think he is referring to SFTP, which I think is a little less intuitive then writing straight FTP stuff.

                        WinSCP .NET Assembly and COM Library :: WinSCP[^] is probably your best bet for doing this. You can get the package down from NuGet Gallery | WinSCP .NET assembly[^]

                            Wow, I just downloaded the source. There's a whole bunch of source files. This seems WAY too complicated. I'll spend some time looking at it, but I'm turned off already.

                              What is "secure FTP"? Everyone here is talking like they know what it means. What's wrong with data encryption? Password protected zip files?

                                Maybe that's because we do... Secure FTP is when the data is encrypted before transmission. Why do through extra step of zipping a file when the SFTP class can encrypt it for you?

                                    And you need to "find" a class first to do that?
