  • Subject: RE: Transfer a PC file to AS/400

I was hoping to do the same thing but have taken a different tact but ran
into a snag (newbie snag, I think).  I was hoping to skip the whole FTP
route and use good ol' "drag and drop" of the file from my PC to a folder on
the 400.  Here's the snag.  I was hoping to get to a folder (in QDLS) via
Network Neighborhood (in W95).  My 400 in on the list here but if I try to
see what's "in it", it just searches and never shows me anything.  I suspect
something with Authority but don't know where to go next.  Note: I'm not
running Client/Access so I don't have their Operations Navigator but I can
get to a PC that does if it is easier.  How would I get proper Authority if
I go this way (O.N.)?
