This has been resolved. (See IBM problem ticket below) Thanks for all who helped with my problem. It turns out I was missing an Equifax CA.

Thanks again. PLA





ACTION TAKEN: I was able to FTP using SSL to that same site that you were FTP'ing to - IP address 139.76.142.4. I didn't get any errors. So I did a trace to see what it was using and I broke the trace down and saw that they were using: Equifax Secure Certificate Authority (expires 08/22/18) This is different than what your CA trust list shows: BellSouth Equifax eBusiness CA-1Root certificate: (expires 6/21/20) Is that "Equifax Secure Certificate Authority" CA on your system? If it is, you would want to put it also into the trust list of the OS/400 FTP Client. If you are current on PTFs, you could create an "Other Certificate Store" and look at the CA's there and export the "Equifax Secure Certificate Authority" and then import
it into the *SYSTEM Certificate Store. Also, I pasted it below and you could save it to Notepad and just FTP it to the iSeries and then import it as a CA
and trust it.

S7> COMPID= 5722SS1TC CUSTOMER REP: Patrick Archibald ACTION TAKEN: Since the remote site was using "Equifax Secure Certificate Authority", they should have been able to send you that CA. Also, if your system is current on PTFs, it should have created that CA when the *SYSTEM store was created. The "Equifax Secure Certificate Authority" is now shipped
with the OS/400. It may have been deleted from you *SYSTEM
store. You could test to see if that CA is on you system by creating an "Other System Certificate Store" and then go into that newly created "Other System Certificate Store" and under"Fast Path" look in "Work with CA certificates" and you should see it in the list. Regards, Mark Winter ACTION PLAN: RQ to NETRSP. . ________________________ 05/05/23-09:02--AT ____________________________
*** Electronic update by customer. *** Electronic close request by customer *** CUSTOMER REQUESTS THIS PMR TO BE CLOSED *** Additional Information: OK. Thank for your help and the knowledge. You can close this ticket. PLA

Hi

I am trying get files using SSL FTP from a V5R2 AS/400 to BellSouth. I
am getting a return code -23 prior to logging in. Does anyone know what return code -23 means?


I am using the following command:

STRTCPFTP RMTSYS(AICXFERTEST.BELLSOUTH.COM) SECCNN(*SSL)

Afterwards I get this:

Connecting to host AICXFERTEST.BELLSOUTH.COM at address 139.76.142.4 using port 21.

220 <<<Connect:Enterprise UNIX 2.2.00 Secure FTP>>> at aic00387 FTP server ready. Time = 12:44:18

234 AUTH TLS-C/TLS OK.


Secure connection error, return code -23.



Thanx, PLA
