Please advise.

Thanks.

How doesn't ASP.NET 2.0 come with a built-in FTP framework?

Look at System.Net.FtpWebRequest and System.Net.FtpWebResponse.

FTP in ASP.NET

Working with FTP in ASP.NET is a bit tricky - even using FtpWebRequest built-in in .NET 2.x.

ASP.NET live span is typically few (milli)seconds, but FTP session can take minutes. Moreover communication between user's web browser and ASP.NET page is state-less, but communication between ASP.NET server and FTP server is state-full.

See rebex.net website. They have sample FTP browser implemented in ASP.NET.
