Using System.IO namespace for FTP operations

I have a few syncing routines that I'd like to use for FTP uploads. However they all use th开发者_JS百科e functions in the IO namespace, and I was wondering whether I could use it to access distant files stored on an FTP server.

Maybe should I mount the distant server as a network drive? Is there a way to do this programatically?

Thanks,

CFP.

FTP functions in .NET are under the System.Net namespace. You want the FtpWebRequest object.
