This project requires a Windows based program to use FTP to transfer all documents (e.g. *.doc or *.txt) from a folder on a PC to a given location on an Internet FTP Server, then move the successfully transferred documents to a sub-folder (which is an easy way to show which files have been transferred and which haven't, and also it will cater for situations where, for example, the Internet connection has dropped and a restart is needed, without having to copy all the files which had already been copied). This program will need to read in an encrypted config file (see below) and we will also need a suitable method for creating this encrypted file from an Active Server Page. When it first runs, it should ask for the folder to transfer from, and where the 'Successfully Copied' files should be moved to, then click on Start and away it should go. The program should show it's progress with a file count indicating how many files have been copied and how many are left (standard progress bar type stuff). During the transfer process it should either cycle through some web pages (given as URLs in the encrypted file) or display embedded images. You know the kind of thing, small bite-sized adverts about what the product can do. Please advise us on costs for both options. Thanks. ## Deliverables In summary, you bid should be for: * Creating a Windows .exe program to handle the transfer * * One quote for built-in product advert pages * One quote with feature to display on-line web pages * Creating code to create encrypted configuration file We would also be interested in understanding what costs would be involved for also having a version that supports the OSX for the Mac. The program should consist of one small exe, run in a fixed window size of 500px wide by 400px high, (exact design to be provided by us) and have the following configuration options, read in via the encrypted file: 1) List of acceptable file types (e.g. *.doc,*.txt) 2) FTP Server details (e.g. [login to view URL]) 3) FTP Login Username 4) FTP Login Password 5) Destination Folder on the Server (relative from the login home folder, e.g. \Customers\XYZ\Documents) 6) An unlimited list of URL's to pages that should be displayed in rotation while the transfer is taking place 7) The time delay in seconds for each page to be displayed. And also 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT and XP Optionally Mac OSX
