The download of a file is indeed the next step. But at the moment I am struggling to get a list of files that are present in the directory.
Some more info could be: When I use a FTP client "Passive" should be on, otherwise I cannot download. I am using CF 4.0 with this provider where I want to use FTP, but this version doenst support "passive", could it be that in CF 4.0 the CFFTP tag standard sets "passive off" ?
