Title: RE: [ND] FTP using Java

I've downloaded and tested a trial version of a java FTP bean from NetDynamics 4.x.  Take a look at the website at:  http://www.eos.dk/beans/ftp/index.html

Hope this helps.

    Brendan,

    I'll answer for Suket since I am remotely involved in this and since his
    time zone is one which keeps him in deep sleep at this time.

    The requirement, as far as I understand is that some kind of file need to be
    FTPed from the ND Server machine onto some remote Server machine, and this
    activity is to be triggered from an ND intranet application.

    They had a shell script which used to do the FTP, and they were thinking of
    wrapping it inside a C program and calling runtime.exec(..) from an ND Page
    to get it done. From my understanding of ND architecture, ND won't be happy
    with somebody doing exec(), since this would want to create a new system
    process.

    I advised him that the neat and straightforward solution is to implement FTP
    using a Java function using Socket. We hoped to get some ready-made stuff or
    some useful hints from some generous souls instead of re-inventing the
    wheel. I don't know what is the effort involved in implementing FTP using
    Java, but hope it is reasonable.

    Thanks,

    Aby
