Re: [Cryptix-users] New here... which server is this best suited for?

[Robert V. <rve...@ve...>]

The way this is supposed to work is, we have to have this on our FTP
server.  
 

Step 1:  Determine if there is FTP connectivity.  Provide IP/DNS.
Step 2:  Determine if PGP is available.
Step 3:  Determine if there will be 1-way or 2-way file exchange.
Step 4:  Determine file Transfer Period (Day/Time).
Step 5:  Determine file names.
Step 6:  Exchange PGP keys.   Recipient must provide the sender a copy
of recipient's public key for encryption.
Step 7:  Exchange files via FTP and test decryption.
 
These were the steps we were given.

Your biggest issues will be with the version of Java you are using.

That depends on the FTP server that is being used.  Are you going to be

implementing the server or the client?  Have you looked at this?
