FTPS with Mutual TLS Authentication (TLS Client Certificate)

See more FTP Examples

Demonstrates how to do mutual TLS authentication (using a client certificate from a .pfx/.p12). .NET Core 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();

// If using implicit TLS, you probably want port 990..
ftp.Port = 990;

// Set this to false for implicit TLS, otherwise set to true for explicit TLS (where port is typically 21).
ftp.AuthTls = false;

// Set this to true for implicit TLS, otherwise set to false.
ftp.Ssl = true;

Chilkat.Cert cert = new Chilkat.Cert();
success = cert.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/example.pfx","pfx_password");

// Use this certificate for our TLS mutually authenticated connection:
success = ftp.SetSslClientCert(cert);
if (success == false) {

// Establish the TLS connection with the FTP server.
