Example

The following code example illustrates how to use the IFtpAuthenticationProvider interface to create a custom authentication module that implements user name checks for the FTP service.

public: 
   STDMETHOD(AuthenticateUser)(LPWSTR pszSessionId, 
      LPWSTR pszSiteName, 
      LPWSTR pszUserName, 
      LPWSTR pszPassword, 
      LPWSTR * ppszCanonicalUserName, 
      long * pfAuthenticated) 
      { 
      // Note: You would add your own custom logic here. 
      *ppszCanonicalUserName = pszUserName; 
 
      CString strUserName = L"MyUser"; 
      CString strPassword = L"MyPassword"; 
 
      // Verify that the user name and password are valid. 
      // In this example, the user name is case-insensitive 
      // and the password is case-sensitive. 
      if ((strUserName.CompareNoCase(pszUserName)==0) && 
          (strPassword.Compare(pszPassword)==0)) 
      { 
         *pfAuthenticated = TRUE; 
      } 
      else 
      { 
         *pfAuthenticated = FALSE; 
   } 
      return S_OK; 
   }
