using edtFTP with a .Net Remoting connection

Question

Is it possible to use my active connection for FTP? I am looking for an FTP like app that uses .Net Remoting to communicate instead of the standard sockets. This way firewalls wont be an issue.

Any suggestions and could this be modified to work that way?

Thanks

Answer 1

.NET remoting still uses TCP sockets so I don't understand why it would be any different re firewalls.

It would certainly be possible to implement FTP capabilities using remoting but you'd need to write the client and server. I don't really see the point of doing so though.
