I am trying to use the FTP Adapter for BTS 2002 to pull
files from an FTP site.  Using the receive function, I can
pull the files and submit them to BizTalk.

The problem is that these files are PGP encrypted.  Using
a normal File Receive Function, I could assign a
preprocessor component to do the decryption for me.  The
FTP Receive Function doesn't seem to support that.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Steve,

You may want to use the FTP Receive Function to "get" the file and drop it
to a folder on your BTS server. The use a standard file receive function and
preprocessor to decrypt it and send it to your next process. I've used
several "chained" receive functions with great success.

That sounds great, Jeff.  How can I do that?  Don't I have
to submit to a channel in BizTalk?  How can I make it
write to a file instead?  Is there a way to pass a binary
file through a channel without parsing it or anything?

Thanks,
Steve

Never mind.  I forgot about the pass-through flag.
