Greetings kmote,

Thanks for the reply.

Currently the web app (VB in code-behind) is uploading successfully a file to the remotel server's C:Windows\System32\LogFiles\W3SVC1649540525. I do not know why the file goes to that path on the remote server. The existing code just does a PUT and the file is uploaded for whatever reason to that C drive path.

I need to upload to an E drive path on that remote machine. When I use the CD command after FTPing to that remote machine, I can change only the directory within that C drive and it seems that I cannot use the CD command to change drives, to change to upload to an E drive path. So I can FTP to the remote machine and use the CD command to change the directory within that C drive, but I need to change to the E drive after FTPing to that remote server so that I can PUT to upload a file to a particular path on the E drive. In the code-behind, I can figure out to which path on the E drive the file should be uploaded.
