My compnay recently bought an egg scale from Holland that sorts and grades
eggs and writes the data to a .csv file that is stored on an ftp server that
is part of the scale itself. This server does not accept PASV commands. So,
I have not been able to programmatically download files for insertion into
our database. I have combed the internet looking for a solution. Can
someone recommend a KB article, a white paper or a book? The application is
written in .Net, and the only documentation I can find is written for ftp
servers that accept PASV commands, or is written for VB6 aps.

Help!
 
Hi,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you need some code sample to open an
ftp connection in active mode and download files. If there is any
misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

Here I found some code samples for you. HTH
