SFTP Synchronize Tree Upload with ProgressInfo Callbacks

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates an SFTP synchronization tree upload (local files to SFTP server), with progress info callbacks to monitor each file uploaded. VB.NET

    ' mode=3: Upload only newer files. If a file does not already exist on the server, it is not uploaded.
