using an ftp server?
-
I'm working on a vb app that I would like to connect to an ftp server and execute a few predefined commands. Basically what I'm looking to do is connect daily and d/l a file. I couldn't find anything in the codebank for vb.net, so I'm asking here. Also, I'll be adding a feature that connects to a telnet server and executes a set a predefined commands as well, I would think the solution to the first problem will also solve this one. I've read through my books but can't seem to figure out what to use to do what I want. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

For the FTP portion - check out the article and code by Alex Kwok I reference his C# component in my VB app and use it regularly. I've had to make a few changes to account for odd directory listings but even though I'm not a C# programmer I had no problems with it.
