Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

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

var ftp = new CkFtp2();

ftp.Hostname = "ftp.your-ftp-server.com";
ftp.Username = "ftpAccountLogin";
ftp.Password = "ftpAccountPassword";

// Indicate that the "AUTH TLS" command should be use to convert the connection to TLS
// after the initial TCP connection to port 21 is established.
ftp.AuthTls = true;

// Connect and convert the connection to TLS automatically.
success = ftp.ConnectOnly();
if (success !== true) {
    console.log(ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = ftp.LoginAfterConnectOnly();
if (success !== true) {
    console.log(ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("TLS connection established and successfully authenticated.");
