We are busy creating a sharepoint site, where the user registers, and then evnetually be able to log in to his/her account and one of the possible activities is to view past statements.
The statements are stored as pdf files on some server.
Now i've written some vb code that will ftp the pdf file to a temp folder on the server that is running the sharepoint project and then it should open the pdf file in a new explorer window. Now all this works as long as its run from the IDE(VStudio) but as soon as we port it to sharepoint and run it from the site, the ftp fails due to "logon failure".
As I'm a sharepoint noob I would be very grateful if somebody has some ideas here, as i'm fresh out :)

Does the Sharepoint service/IIS service account have rights to the FTP target folder?
