 Charles,

thanks for your script although it  did not work. ;)
But it put me in the right direction.

I had to modify the  put tsNetUploadSync…..   line as follows to get it working

put tsNetUploadSync("ftp://ftp.domain.com/path/to/file.dat", tEmptyHeaderVar, tData, tResultHeaders, tBytes, tSettings) into tResult

(the bytes variable tBytes was missing)

Without that modification i always got the error "tsneterr: (28) Timeout was reached”.


Your external is really awesome. I never thought that Livecode will support FTPES or FTPS in the near future.
Now with FTPES i am able to connect to HostM ftp servers again.
The provider HostM only supports FTPES (FTP with TLS/SSL) for the FTP sub accounts.
