SSL/FXP

Hi,

Im wondering, if edtFTPj(/Pro) will let me fxp files between two ftp servers while using ssl. Is there any information i've missed about this topic? The docs give an example for non-ssl fxp and i havent yet been able to fxp with ssl...

Some example code would be very helpful for me.


Thanks

No, it won't let you do that - it isn't implemented. FXP is inherently insecure (which is why it is disabled by default in most servers). It's even dodgier to do with SSL, as the 2 servers don't verify each others' certificate.

It's not impossible though - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_eXcha ... P_over_SSL

So we could implement it ...

No doubt its not 100% secure. I've been really struggeling for the past days to find any "out of the box" fxp over ssl. without success.

unluckily my coding skills arent THAT high and it seems its taking a bit more than just sending PASV, PORT, STOR, RETR in the right order to the ftps :/

any help appreciated...

No that will only work for FXP over plain FTP.

If you are interested in FXP over SSL and want it implemented in edtFTPj/PRO, email us to discuss (support at enterprisedt dot com)
