vb component for secure ftp

[yalaman_sun]

Is there any component for secure ftp in vb. If no how should I upload a file using secure ftp using vb

[ChiefRB]

There is no component that I'm aware of that implements "secure" FTP. In fact, as far as I know, FTP doesn't support a "secure" protocol...

I've heard a rumor that there is such a thing as FTPS, but that's all it seems to be, a rumor. I've just implemented 128-bit encryption over normal FTP connection to create a "secure" FTP transfer.

Well, I guess that would work if you had software both ends that you had control over, but with most FTP servers, thats not the case. Thats how I'd do it though, via encryption..

mcsd2002 you said that you have implemented FTP 128-Bit encryption.

A client of mine is looking to use 128-Bit encryption for FTP. How can I (from the client side) make an FTP Connection to the FTP Server with 128-Bit encryption with VB. any suggestions.

Thanks.
