Hi,
If I want to write a FTP client, which class should I use to perform the

Hi

Thank you very much for your reply.
But, the FtpWebRequest Class is only limited to a few platforms. I have not
installed SP2, therefore, the class may not be the solution for me. Is there
any other way to use the FTP for my application? Is there any FTP module
written by other developers?

Thanks

This is written for the 1.1 Platform. It's a simple console program to
download a file from an FTP server. If you have any questions, don't be
afraid to email me.

If you want to use Http to transfer a file "WebClient" class is enough.For
ftp using use "WebRequest" class.
