PentaFTP - PentaWare's FTP Program
PentaFTP is a full FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client that includes both normal
and SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connectivity. You can use PentaFTP to access, upload and
download files on other computers. It is completely integrated with the other PentaSuite
components.
FTP is a protocol that lets your PC access another system that has a valid Internet
Address and has an FTP server program. This allows you to transfer files between a wide
variety of platforms including Windows, Macintosh, OS/2, MVS Mainframes, AS400, UNIX and
Linux based systems and many more. Such transfers are 'controlled' which means that the
information moving from one site to another will remain intact and unchanged.
Zip+Upload and create emails that contain remote links are just a few of the convenient
features that PentaSuite's FTP has to offer
Version 7.5 saw the introduction of numerous world wide firsts as can be seen in the

Launching using the Associated Program.
Added a test to make sure that a file cannot replace a folder and that a folder cannot

Added file transfer of entire folders in Upload (Put) or Download

Explorer is implemented for overwriting files with same name: if the folder already exists
files with the same name will be overwritten after confirmation is requested.
Remote Search implemented for finding files/folders that have specific
characteristics (name matching given pattern, size, modification time and date falling in
a selectable date/time interval).
