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). Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# 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 true.
ftp.put_Passive(false)
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(false)

# We want Implicit SSL:
ftp.put_Ssl(true)

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

print "FTPS Channel Established!" + "\n";

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

success = ftp.Disconnect()
