FTP task connection problem

  • Hi I am new to SSIS implementation and need your help.

    My task is to copy data from files in an FTP server to sql database. For this i want to use FTP task.

    I found a few articles of how to use a FTP task. My question is ... can i store the system name, login and password in a configuration file instead of giving them directly. Because if the FTP source system is changed, then i need to open the package and do the modifications.

    If that cannot be accomplised, i need to split my package into 2 and go ahead so that i will not disturb the remaining tasks.

    Any suggestion or work arounds are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • For sure you can...

    Basically anything you configure on your SSIS palette can be stored in a configuration.

    Click on SSIS>Configurations, and have a look at your options.

    If you need a little more detailed walkthrough, please post.

    Good luck!
