Is it possible to have the FTP processor to connect via FTP over TLS? I cannot seem to find anywhere to set the option if it is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for you help.

Morning VirtuWeb,

unfortunately this is not (yet) possible. If it is about delivering instead of watching the ftp site, i can help you out with a commandline tough.
So, are we talking about getting files from ftp or delivering files to ftp?

I need to deliver files to an FTP that will only accept connections via TLS. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Thats easy then, download and install winscp (should work portable too), use the winscp userinterface once to connect to the ftp with tls, it will ask you to accept the certificate - once you accepted it, the cert is stored for the currently logged in user. After you accepted the cert, you can use this code in a commandline processor (change user:user to your username:password - and of course chang localhost:21 to your servername:port):
You can remove the -explicittls in case your server wants implicit.
In case you run ffastrans as a background service, you must log in to windows as the username that the service is set to use for accepting the certificate.
If you have problems, please send c:\temp\winscp_log.log. When it works, for production, you can remove the parameter /log=c:\temp\winscp_log.log - it would generate an ever growing log file.

Awesome! Thanks so much I'll make the changes on Friday or Monday and let you know.
