[twsocket] Multiple FTP Clients
I use the ICS FTP client to connect to an FTP server running on Linux. 1: This server has the ability to run in a simple FTP mode that only uses the control socket for all transfers. Is there a way I can configure the ICS FTP Client to operate like this? 2: In another situation, connecting to the same FTP server, I would like to have two FTP clients in my application, both logged on to the same server with the same username and password. Then each FTP client would navigate to different directories and download files in parallel. The server allows the login but are there any fundamental reasons why this would not work?

Is there a way I can configure the ICS FTP Client to operate like this? This is not FTP and is not supported by the FTP component. But of course there is no problem if you want to support this special protocol using TWSocket. 2: In another situation, connecting to the same FTP server, I would like to have two FTP clients in my application, both logged on to the same server with the same username and password. Then each FTP client would navigate to different directories and download files in parallel. The server allows the login but are there any fundamental reasons why this would not work? No problem, just use several FTP client component either dropped on your form or created dynamically and operate them using the asynchronous functions (GetAsync and the likes). You'll be able to support any number of concurrent FTP session to the same server or to different servers. You are only limited by the resources your computer has and the resource the servers have. -- francois.pie...@overbyte.be The author of the freeware multi-tier middleware MidWare The author of the freeware Internet Component Suite (ICS) http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
Re: [twsocket] Multiple FTP Clients
1. I've never heard of the FTP protocol allowing this, perhaps it's Trivial FTP? Don't know if ICS supports TFTP 2. Sure you can do this, just create two client controls at design time or dynamically on demand at run time.

I would also add the obvious caveat that your application should coordinate which files are being transferred so that the FTP components don't collide with each other. dZ. -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be

Maybe it is SFTP--FTP over SSH?!

Normal FTP will run with the control socket only provided you don't attempt any data transfers or directory listings, except those special ones that only use the control socket.

1. Is there a reason you want/need to do this? If not, don't complicate your life. 2. Others have responded sufficiently to this.

Re: [twsocket] Multiple FTP Clients
I recall asking for support of this on server side long time ago but have lost interest since then.

[twsocket] StatusCode of 0, ReasonPhrase = 'OK
I read about others having this same problem during a web search. I'm getting this problem too. I'm using THttpCli1 in a tight loop on an external thread to send commands to a robot accepting commands as an HTTP server. I set THttpCli's Multithreaded property to TRUE. But I'm getting tons of errors from the Post operation due to the StatusCode coming back as 0 with the the ReasonPhrase = 'OK'. Other times the call works properly returning a 200 StatusCode. The returned document is empty when the StatusCode is 0, otherwise it returns the correct response document. http://www.mail-archive.com/twsocket@elists.org/msg12385.html Did anyone ever get any more information on what causes this and how to solve this? The call sent, as far as URL, Post data, etc. is identical each pass and the call happens about every 100 milliseconds. I recognize that it may be the robot/server actually returning that error code, however this doesn't happen when I run the code on the main VCL thread with Multithreaded set to FALSE.
