An FTP Component by Rebex

Rebex FTP/SSL for .NET V2.5.3087.

Secure FTP for .NET is a versatile file-transfer component for .NET languages (such as C# or VB.NET). It allows you to transfer files directly from your application using FTPS, an extension of FTP which is fast becoming a standard for secure FTP. This protocol is also known as FTP over SSL or FTP over TLS and is defined by RFC 4217.
