Re: DDM equivalent using FTP


Provideded you're on V4R4 or up, you can set up a DDM file with a TCP/IP address rather than an SNA address.  Create the file in the usual way, and you should spot the additional options to allow you to set it up as TCP
CRTDDMF FILE(MYHOMELIB/TESTFILE)                            
        RMTFILE(MYRMTLIB/TESTFILE)                          
        RMTLOCNAME('192.168.1.4' *IP)                        
        TEXT('Or you could have put a host name in if one was set up for your remote AS400')

        Subject:        DDM equivalent using FTP



I need to read records from a remote AS/400, and mark each record as
processed.  Currently we use an RPG program on a local system to read
records through a DDM file providing a path to a logical file on a remote
system.
I can no longer use DDM because of company restrictions to move away from
SNADS.
Is there an equivalent AS/400 method to accomplish this with TCP or FTP,
giving record level access to a remote file?
PS The remote file expands hundreds of times throughout the day, and I need
to pull all new records from the remote file.
Thanks!
