*  This example assumes Chilkat Ftp2 to have been previously unlocked.
*  See Unlock Ftp2 for sample code.

loFtp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Ftp2')

loFtp.Hostname = "www.authtls-ftps-server.com"
loFtp.Username = "FTP_LOGIN"
loFtp.Password = "FTP_PASSWORD"
loFtp.AuthTls = 1
loFtp.Port = 21

*  Connect to the FTP server using explicit TLS (AUTH TLS).
lnSuccess = loFtp.ConnectOnly()
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFtp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  Get the FTP server's certificate.
loServerCert = CreateObject('Chilkat.Cert')
lnSuccess = loFtp.GetServerCert(loServerCert)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFtp
    RELEASE loServerCert
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  Now that we have the certificate, we can check it in any way we desire.
*  (See the online reference documentation for the certificate object's methods
*  and properties)...

*  Assuming the certificate is OK, proceed to authenticate with the FTP server.
lnSuccess = loFtp.LoginAfterConnectOnly()
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFtp
    RELEASE loServerCert

*  Proceed with uploading/download files, etc...
