ftp ssl

Post by basim »

Hi ,
I m trying to retrieve data using ssl
Using ftp_implicit
ftp = FTP_open( 'address
: 22
: 100
: FTPS_IMPLICIT
: FTPS_PRIVATE
: FTPS_PRIVATE );
I got the following error
DSPLY gsk_secure_soc_init: Peer not recognized or badly formatted
if i change it FTPS_TST the server reply with
0: SSH-2.0-WS_FTP-SSH_9.0.3.65 that is not recognized as a valid reply
"Not a valid FTP reply line"

Can someone help

Thanks for your support

The site you are connected to uses the SSH protocol rather than FTP. You won't be able to use FTPAPI with this site.

SFTP = A tool similar to FTP that uses the SSH protocol. This is not FTP, it is just an interface for SSH that works similarly.
FTPS = FTP over SSL. This is actually FTP, and will work with FTPAPI.
