    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.

    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?

                  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.

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

                  Well, that sucks. You might want to look at the library Nish and others have pointed out then, I guess.

                      Well, there is something to be said for having the "data at rest" encrypted. But there is also something to be said for not having your FTP credentials flying across the wire in the clear.
