How to report changes in FTP server?
-
Hi, I have an FTP server by some users. Each user has a folder and can add or delete a file in his specified folder. Now I want that I'm notifed by email when a user makes any change in his folder. Can I use C# to do this situation? Does FTP server provide me this situation or I have to develop a program? regards, Mehdi

Doing this via FTP would be difficult - if even possible. About the only way is to poll the folders and check for recent changes. A better way would be to write a program that uses the
FileSystemWatcher
component to watch the directories on the server (i.e., not via FTP but on the file system itself) and alerts you of changes.-----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.21 GCS/G/MU d- s: a- C++++ UL@ P++(+++) L+(--) E--- W+++ N++ o+ K? w++++ O- M(+) V?
