SQL Server replication can use FTP to transfer synchronization images of publication schema and data. Use the FTPAddress, FTPPort, FTPLogin, and FTPPassword properties to enable use of FTP for synchronization.
Applications should use the MergePublication2 or TransPublication2 objects when setting the FTPAddress property. The FTPAddress property remains a property of the TransPullSubscription and MergePullSubscription objects to maintain backward compatibility.
Note If an application sets FTPAddress with the MergePublication2 or TransPublication2 object after the initial snapshot has been created, a new snapshot must be generated. Snapshots are applied when the next scheduled snapshot agent runs.
