FTPS / Implicit SSL

See more FTP Examples

Demonstrates how to connect using implicit SSL on port 990. The FTP component connects using SSL on port 990, which is the de-facto standard FTP SSL port. Not all FTP servers support implicit SSL. An alternative is to use AUTH SSL (also called AUTH TLS). Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

$ftp = chilkat::CkFtp2->new();

# If this example does not work, try using passive mode
# by setting this to 1.
$ftp->put_Passive(0);
$ftp->put_Hostname("ftp.something.com");
$ftp->put_Username("test");
$ftp->put_Password("test");
$ftp->put_Port(990);

# We don't want AUTH SSL:
$ftp->put_AuthTls(0);

# We want Implicit SSL:
$ftp->put_Ssl(1);

# Connect and login to the FTP server.
$success = $ftp->Connect();
if ($success != 1) {
    print $ftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}
else {
    # LastErrorText contains information even when
    # successful. This allows you to visually verify
    # that the secure connection actually occurred.
    print $ftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
}

print "FTPS Channel Established!" . "\r\n";

# Do whatever you're doing to do ...
# upload files, download files, etc...

$success = $ftp->Disconnect();
