ftp = chilkat.CkFtp2()

ftp.put_Hostname("ftp.your-ftp-server.com")
ftp.put_Username("ftpAccountLogin")
ftp.put_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.put_AuthTls(True)

# Connect and convert the connection to TLS automatically.
