<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Looking for a code snip that will retrieve a file and dir listing from a SFTP server.<br />
<br />
Found a couple of examples on-line look promising but keep getting an error:<br />
<br />
&quot;System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: 234 SSL enabled... start negotiation . ---&gt; System.IO.IOException: The handshake failed due to an unexpected packet format. &nbsp;...&quot;<br />

<pre><code id="code-10-28400179-1">    Dim request As System.Net.FtpWebRequest = DirectCast(WebRequest.Create(New Uri(&quot;ftp://sftp.domain.com/myFile.txt&quot;)), System.Net.FtpWebRequest)
    request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile
    request.EnableSsl = True
    request.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential(&quot;username&quot;, &quot;password&quot;)
    request.UsePassive = True
    Dim response As System.Net.FtpWebResponse = DirectCast(request.GetResponse(), System.Net.FtpWebResponse)</code></pre>

Any help is appreciated.

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
