FTP Server login

Question

OK, I am very knew to this so please bear with me. Say I have an IP Address that I would like to start an FTP with, is there any exact coding I use with the enterprisedt classes that take in an IP address, and logs into it with a given username and password? I have tried using InetAddress, but it does not regonize my IP address since it is a string. Thank you.

Just pass it as a String object to setRemoteHost(). I tried the following (Windows envirnment) and it worked:

MSDOS Batch file:

set JAVA_HOME=<your path to java>
set CP=.;..\lib\edtftpj.jar 
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -classpath %CP% Demo %1 %2 %3

Commandline (MSDOS shell):

demo 1.2.3.4 username pass1234

The arguments are, of course, passed as String objects to the 'main' method. The same thing shoud apply in a GUI. Or, to create a String object directly:

String host = new String("1.2.3.4");
