Re: Using ftpapi to send encrypting file

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mario,

FTPAPI can send an encrypted file -- as long as you send it in BINARY 
mode.  You never want to run character set translation (ASCII/EBCDIC) on 
encrypted data.

I don't understand the part about encrypting fields with OpenSSL. Do you 
really want to encrypt just certain fields, and not the whole file? 
I've never tried to do that, and I'm not sure exactly what the pitfalls 
and gotchas might be.
