Can connect to FTP using FileZilla or WinSCP, but not with FtpWebRequest or FluentFTP

问题

I am trying to open an FTP connection over SSL in my code. I'm able to connect and list a directory using FileZilla of WinSCP. But when listing the directory through .NET code using FtpWebClient, I get the error

(425) Can't open data connection

Since I'm able to connect using FileZilla from the same computer, I'm not sure how to go about troubleshooting this.

Here's my code

public void FtpStuff()
{
   string url = "ftp://my.server.com";

   FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
   request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("myname", "password");
   request.EnableSsl = true;
   request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectory;
   FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
   StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());

   // This is the line that throws the exception
   string line = streamReader.ReadLine();
}

I also tried FluentFTP. Here's my code for that. I get the exception

Unable to build data connection: Operation not permitted.

public void FtpStuff()
{
   FtpClient client = new FtpClient();
   client.Host = "my.server.com";
   client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("myname", "password");
   client.EncryptionMode = FtpEncryptionMode.Explicit;
   client.Connect();

   // This line gives me an exception.
   var files = client.GetListing();
}

Here is the logging information from FluentFTP. I changed the real user name and IP, but the rest of the data (including the port) is the real data. My FTP service provider specifies that I have to connect on port 21. The problem seems to happen towards the end after the EPSV command is issued and a connection on a new port is established.

I can also connect using WinSCP. As suggested in comments, I did check if TLS/SSL session ID is reused when opening the data connection. It seems that it is.

回答1:

.NET framework does not support TLS/SSL session reuse. If your server requires it (what it looks it does), you cannot use FtpWebRequest nor FluentFTP. Both use the .NET implementation of TLS/SSL.

You will have to use FTP library that uses own TLS/SSL implementation.

You can use my WinSCP .NET assembly. Though contrary to FluentFTP, it's not a native .NET library, it has dependencies on an external binary. But that's what makes it working.

Some references:

https://github.com/robinrodricks/FluentFTP/issues/347
https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/27916
"Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream" when transferring to/from FTP server over TLS/SSL using FluentFTP
Upload file to implicit FTPS server in C# with TLS session reuse
Suddenly getting "150 Opening Data channel for file download from server" after the FTP downloads was working for years – According to this post and other references elsewhere, the TLS/SSL session reuse was supported earlier with .NET Framework, but some update broke it. In .NET Core it was never working (see also the dotnet GitHub link above).
