Good article. I have in the past used a simalar solution with Winscp, however we recently change some of our poliacys and the SSIS packagewas moved to a server where 3rd party apps where forbiden. To get around this i found out that you could easly use the c# ftp class in a script task to do the same thing & it's more relable, and faster cause the server doesn't have to fire up another application.

//Get Package Varables

String MyFTPSiteName = Dts.Variables["User::FTPHost"].Value.ToString();

String MyFTPLogin = Dts.Variables["User::FTPUser"].Value.ToString();

String MyFTPPassWord = Dts.Variables["User::FTPPassWord"].Value.ToString();

String MyFolder = Dts.Variables["User::Folder"].Value.ToString();

String MyPeriod = Dts.Variables["User::Period"].Value.ToString();

String MyFileName = Dts.Variables["User::File"].Value.ToString();

//Accept TLS/SSL Certificate

ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(AcceptAllCertificatePolicy);

//Upload Data File

{

FtpWebRequest MyRequest = FtpWebRequest.Create(MyFTPSiteName + "/" + MyFileName ) as FtpWebRequest;

MyRequest.EnableSsl = true;

MyRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(MyFTPLogin, MyFTPPassWord);

MyRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;

//Read File into byte array

FileInfo MyFileI = new FileInfo(MyFolder + "\\"+MyFileName );

FileStream MyFStream = new FileStream(MyFolder + "\\" + MyFileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);

BinaryReader MyReader = new BinaryReader(MyFStream);

byte[] MyFile = MyReader.ReadBytes(int.Parse(MyFileI.Length.ToString()));

MyReader.Close();

MyFStream.Close();

MyRequest.ContentLength = MyFile.Length;

//Upload File

Stream MyStream = MyRequest.GetRequestStream();

MyStream.Write(MyFile, 0, MyFile.Length);

MyStream.Close();

FtpWebResponse MyResponse = MyRequest.GetResponse() as FtpWebResponse;

MyResponse.Close();

}

public bool AcceptAllCertificatePolicy(object sender, X509Certificate certificate, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors sslPolicyErrors)

{

return true;

}
