Re: FTP exit

I believe that you can put the following over ride in your CL and then the
FTP process will log to the screen.  Otherwise it logs to a file. (In my
example, ISY2 is the library and QFTP is the file.  The file holds two
members. You may want to look at the members btw to see what's already in
them.)


  /*         OVRDBF     FILE(OUTPUT) TOFILE(ISY2/QFTP) MBR(FTPLOG)   +
             By commenting this command the FTP process prints the   +
             log file to the screen.  Uncommenting the command will  +
             print and save the log in ISY2/QFTP/FTPLOG              */
