SFTP and ReplyReceived

Question

Hello,

I've used edtFTPnet for my FTP connection for many years and it has worked very well. My requirements have changed and now I need SFTP so I'm running the trial of edtFTPnet/PRO.

I can connect to the SFTP server fine and carry out my commands. The one thing that I have an issue with is that _ReplyReceived (e.Message) only returns OK to all the commands I execute.

Don't SFTP servers give reply codes like FTP servers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_FT ... turn_codes)?

Thanks.

Answer 1

No, the SFTP protocol does not provide reply codes in the way that FTP does. It simply returns an OK code if the operation succeeds. It does provide error codes in the case of error.

There's more details here on error codes.

Answer 2

Great thanks. I'll work to suit.

Answer 3

As it happens though I've devised a workaround for my problem, by appending the client-side date/time to the file names

It's not clear to me what your problem is - your post is appended to an old thread here.
