Most probably, you need to read RFC 959.
Remember that on regular FTP the login/password are sent in clear text. Using SSL with FTP is probably much harder in Comet (for either implicit or explicit SFTP or FTP SSL).
You can write your own, probably not too complex. Remember that internally the internet could be run on a pair of connected typewriters (or Telex). it is all plain shorthand english commands (mostly).
You also need to remember that depending on the version of Comet you are using, you may have some limitations... like a 254 bytes buffer... I do not know how big is the IP stack/buffer in Comet32 - haven't tried to break it yet. Soon !!
Each file can be a maximum of 1MB in length Uploaded files will be purged from the server on a regular basis.
