I believe that, when you FTP a data file, only the data is transferred. You are not actually transferring the object, in iSeries terms. So no authorities are carried across. If a new file is created by the process, it'd probably be done under the profile that signed on the remote box in the ftp session. A PUT will replace whatever is there, so I assume that that is based on the authority of the signed-on user, again.

I like the idea of using a SAVF - this keeps the iSeries object intact. Then restoring it follows the usual rules about doing that.

If I FTP some files from Box A to Box B without changing any of the
authority attributes will I run into any problems?  The files are secured by
an auth list on Box A and *PUBLIC has *AUTL authority to the files.
