How to send arbitrary FTP commands in C#

Question

I have implemented the ability to upload, download, delete, etc. using the FtpWebRequest class in C#. That is fairly straight forward.

What I need to d

Answer 1

You can try our Rebex FTP component:

// create client and connect 
Ftp client = new Ftp();
client.Connect("ftp.example.org");
client.Login("username", "password");

// send SITE command
// note that QUOTE and SITE are ommited. QUOTE is command line ftp syntax only.
client.Site("LRECL=132 RECFM=FB");

// send SYST command
client.SendCommand("SYST");
FtpResponse response = client.ReadResponse();
if (response.Group != 2) 
  ; // handle error 

// disconnect 
client.Disconnect();
