    <p>I implemented my custom FTP class to work with a hosted server that I'm paying for. I use the FTP for backup, restore and update of my application. I'm now at the moment where I want to enable the ssl to put this in production. I asked my hosting company if they support the ssl protocol and they said they do.</p> <p>So I modified my methods after Microsoft MSDN tutorial to something like this:</p> <pre><code>reqFTP = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(m_ftpAddress.Trim())); reqFTP.UseBinary = true; reqFTP.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(m_ftpUsername, m_ftpPassword); reqFTP.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectory; ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(ValidateServerCertificate); X509Certificate cert = new X509Certificate(path to a certificate created with makecert.exe); reqFTP.ClientCertificates.Add(cert); reqFTP.AuthenticationLevel = AuthenticationLevel.MutualAuthRequested; reqFTP.ImpersonationLevel = System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Identification; reqFTP.EnableSsl = true; </code></pre> <p>Now, the MSDN says that if the server supports the ssl protocol it will not throw and exception when asked with AUTH TLS. This can be seen in the trace log. So I suppose it is not a server issue. </p> <p>After the authentication phase the server returns a</p> <blockquote> <p>System.Net Information: 0 : [0216] FtpControlStream#41622463 - Received response [227 Entering Passive Mode (the IP and port number).]</p> </blockquote> <p>message which triggers an error:</p> <blockquote> <p>System.Net Error: 0 : [0216] Exception in the FtpWebRequest#12547953::GetResponse - The remote server returned an error: 227 Entering Passive Mode (the IP and port number).</p> </blockquote> <p>I tried setting the</p> <pre><code>reqFTP.UsePassive = true; </code></pre> <p>property to false and then I get this error:</p> <blockquote> <p>System.Net Information: 0 : [2692] FtpControlStream#4878312 - Received response [500 Illegal PORT command]</p> </blockquote> <p>Of course, without the EnableSLL property set to true everything works without problems.</p> <p>Does anyone have any idea on this?</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> I modified the code as fallows:</p> <pre><code>reqFTP = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(m_ftpAddress.Trim())); reqFTP.UseBinary = true; reqFTP.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(m_ftpUsername, m_ftpPassword); reqFTP.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectory; ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(ValidateServerCertificate); reqFTP.ClientCertificates.Add(cert); reqFTP.AuthenticationLevel = AuthenticationLevel.MutualAuthRequested; reqFTP.ImpersonationLevel = System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Identification reqFTP.EnableSsl = true; </code></pre> <p>The <code>ValidateServerCertificate</code> always returns <strong>true</strong>. After this modifications the effect is none. </p> <p>And I don't understand:</p> <ul> <li>In this moment the application is using the server certificate, right ?</li> <li>And before the modifications was using also mine ?</li> </ul> <p>Can somebody explain my how this works ? </p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> After many emails exchanged with the hosting company it turned out that they had problems with their FTP software and it was no problem with the code. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
