Re: Dir listing and MD5 checksums - command line interface
I have two questions. I am using the WinSCP.com utility to automate file transfers. I would also like to use it to get directory listings (directory structure) of the remote locations saved back to the client computer as a text file or as XML, is this possible?
You can use "ls" command with XML logging

Or use .NET assembly to collect structure and save it to a file:

Is it possible to generate a MD5 checksum of files on the client computer and the remote computer (host) computer and save the MD5 checksums as text or XML?
No. Actually even in the GUI you are limited to servers that support generating MD5 and there are only few.
