SSL in VB .Net

[Jerry]

Problem: My VB app can FTP to and from my internal FTP
server just fine, but the FTP server I need to connect to
for the project requires an SSL connection. Can anyone
tell me what to do to make an SSL connection in VB .Net?

Thanks for any help.

The .NET framework only supports SSL for HTTP. If you want to use SSL for
another protocol, you'll have to use a 3rd party implementation.
We have a free and open source library that does SSL and TLS right here:

You can find an FTPS component (as
well as many other SSL protocol components) in IP*Works! SSL .Net Edition, which
you can find at www.nsoftware.com/download/. The trial has a fully functional
FTPS client included.
