System.net to upload a file - how to?

[changobutt]

How can I use System.net to upload a file to an FTP server? Is there a way to track its progress?

Thanks in advance

.NET does not offer any built-in support for FTP. You will have to code a solution yourself, after learning the FTP protocol, or find a pre-built component that supports this already.

Hmm, ok, that's what I was told, that I could FTP using system.net. Then, what would you suggest I use if I need to upload some files to an FTP server and track its progress? Winsock or Internet Transfer Control or something else?

Thanks for your response.

Perhaps I wasn't clear but you can use [msdn]System.Net[/msdn] to code any solution.
