See more FTP Examples

To change the current remote directory, call ChangeRemoteDir. C#

bool success = false;

//  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Ftp2 ftp = new Chilkat.Ftp2();

ftp.Hostname = "ftp.example.com";
ftp.Username = "login";
ftp.Password = "password";

//  Connect and login to the FTP server.
success = ftp.Connect();
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Set the current directory (on the FTP server) to the
//  "orders" subdirectory.  When logging into an FTP account,
//  current remote directory is automatically set to the
//  home directory of the FTP account.  From the FTP client's
//  perspective, it will be "/", but the absolute path on the
//  FTP server might be something like "/home/ftp_users/".
success = ftp.ChangeRemoteDir("orders");
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = ftp.Disconnect();
