I am using FileZilla as my ftpserver....
My problem is that I want to rename a file programatically..

C#

public int RedenumireArticolServer(string adresaserver,string numearticolvechi, string numearticolnou)
        {
            try
            {
                //"c:/ArticoleAplicatieLicenta/"+
                string uri = "ftp://"+ adresaserver+ "/" +numearticolvechi+".dat";
                FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri);
                request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("lucian", "lucian");
                request.RenameTo = numearticolnou+".dat";
                FtpWebResponse r = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
            }
            catch (WebException e)
            {
                String status = ((FtpWebResponse)e.Response).StatusDescription;
                Console.WriteLine(status);
                return -1;
            }
            return 1;
        }

In Filezilla I have a user "lucian", and I have made a Sharedfolder in c:/ArticoleAplicatieLicenta , and set it as Homefolder

The code above, doesn't give any error, but It doesn't rename my file...

Can you help please?
Thank you .. :)

this works (I founded somewhere on the internet and adapted to my case):

C#

public int RedenumireArticolServer(string adresaserver,string numearticolvechi, string numearticolnou)
        {
            FtpWebRequest reqFTP;
            try
            {
                reqFTP = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri("ftp://" + adresaserver + "/" + numearticolvechi+".dat"));
                reqFTP.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.Rename;
                reqFTP.RenameTo = numearticolnou+".dat";
                reqFTP.UseBinary = true;
                reqFTP.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("lucian", "lucian");
                FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)reqFTP.GetResponse();
                Stream ftpStream = response.GetResponseStream();

                ftpStream.Close();
                response.Close();
            }
           catch (WebException e)
            {
                String status = ((FtpWebResponse)e.Response).StatusDescription;
                Console.WriteLine(status);
               return -1;
           }
            return 1;
        }
