Remarks
If this component is being used on a form or within another component then it is a good idea to use the "Connection Tester" to test the property settings.
Connections are not opened until the Connect()()()() method is called. Connection-, Authentication-, and Security-related properties should be set prior to opening the connection.
At a minimum, the following properties should be set prior to connection.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Protocol | The protocol to use: SFTP, explicit FTPS, implicit FTPS or plain FTP. |
| ServerAddress | The domain-name or IP-address of the server. |
| UserName | User-name of account on the server. |
| Password | Password of account on the server. |
If AutoLogin is true then the component will attempt to log in immediately after successfully connecting.
This method will throw an FTPException if the component is already connected to the server.
