TCP IP File Transfer - Possible? --> HowTo?

Hello people!

Is it possible to transfer a file via TCP IP..?

If it's possible...

Can you help me to build a small and easy script, which should send a file via tcp to another pc...

thx

Search. Yes it's possible, and almost nothing with TCP is easy for a beginner.

Why use TCP when FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is the preferred method other use? Unless you are trying to subvert filtering that is in place, it is the way to go.

The help file has examples that you may be able to press into good use.

FTP doesn't work on the new vers of AutoIt

I have tried an ftp uploader I wrote with production version 3.3.0.0 dated 24th December 2008 and Beta version 3.2.13.13 dated 20th Dec 2008.

I didn't find any problems.

What have you found that stops ftp working?

send.au3

recv.au3

Hello

I have check this send and recv scripts but my question is what to do to have this to work with bigger files more than 1MB size.

why would he have to install/make a ftp server when plain old tcp would work just fine??

p.s.: as i said in the reply on your pm borje that should work just fine.... (tested it and worked!) but ... you should try sending smaller parts

so in send.au3 $MAX_SIZE should be smaller(try 500*1024=500k)

WOA... i finally found this topic... lol sorry i fogot the title.. anyway FTP\TCP are completely different things.. sure you can read the file and send that in binary through TCP but yeah

TCP and FTP... two totally different things

I already have a FTP client... how can I create a FTP server with autoit code??

Explored using a few FTP servers but all has their inhibitions.. the requirements for the ftp server is very basic.. only requirement is that I need to know when it's completed so I can do something to the file that came in.

[torels 5]

you could use ftp.exe (on the computer by default)

to take a look at it try opening the CMD window and type what follows:

ftp some.host.com

you will obviously need access credentials to access the site once you have done that!
