hi
i have to ceate an applciation which can tranfer files from one pc to another on the network. I want to transfer files using FTP. can anyone tell me about an open source FTP client and FTP server which i can embed in my applciation easily and use the FTP functionality(both client and server).

thnx in advance..

Why not just create your own implementation of FTP by using Sockets and sending a collection of bytes from one application to another then have the receiving application write those bytes to a File (or FileDescriptor object if that is possible).

Edit: Here's an Open-Source API that seems promising - Linkage

FTP i guess is more reliable as compared to sockets. plus i have to transfer large setup files 1.5 or 2 g b i guess in this case FTP would be better...

Well heres one I had come across a while ago : JeFTPd (Java Embeddable FTP Server).
I think it appears to be what you are looking for, but it is still in experimental stage.
