HI,
I'am Raja from India and this is my first thread at this popular forum.My question is regarding security in using file transfer servers.
I have sent a file using yahoo file transfer server it has stored the file temporarily in the following link http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/msgr/rajapragada/.tmp/ How do i delete it after my use?
Will the file be still accesible?
what can one say with this regarding security in using file transfer servers?

Thanks for patient reading will be glad if u answer my query.

regards raja.

I don't have first hand experience with the Yahoo's ftp server,however,if its an organisation such as Yahoo,I am inclined to think that you really don't have to worry too much about security.
And all ftp servers recognise a del caommand which is used to delete.Depending upon the method of your conection(which means a gui ftp client will let you execute this command by click of a button).
Use WE_FTP its a free ftp client
