FTP Download

Question

Hi all I have a trivial problem but I couldn't solve it :( I'm working in a web site (.net C#) and there's a link which supposed to download a file from ftp account directly. The account information( for example) : URL: ftp2.Sitename.com Username: user Password: pass First I made direct links to the files in the code but it gave me (page cann't be displayed) and if I typed the full link directly in the explorer It doesn't even ask me for the login information ! Does anyone know how can I provide the account information and the file link through code ? Thnx in advance

i don't know if the following code can help you public void Download(string uri string fileName FtpDataMode mode) { try { FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(fileName FileMode.Create); FtpWebRequest ftpRequest = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(uri)); ftpRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username password); ftpRequest.KeepAlive = false; ftpRequest.UseBinary = mode == FtpDataMode.Binary; ftpRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile; FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)ftpRequest.GetResponse(); Stream ftpStream = response.GetResponseStream(); long contentLength = response.ContentLength; int bufferSize = 2048; int readCount; byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize]; readCount = ftpStream.Read(buffer 0 bufferSize); while (readCount > 0) { fileStream.Write(buffer 0 readCount); readCount = ftpStream.Read(buffer 0 bufferSize); } ftpStream.Close(); fileStream.Close(); response.Close(); } catch (FtpException) { throw; } catch (Exception ex) { throw new FtpException(FtpException.EXCEPTION_TEXT ex); } }
