All,

I'm sure I'm missing something simple. I have to get a list of files on a
remote server so that when I pick them up with GET, they can be renamed to
something unique (I can't use the IFS for this because of the constraints of
the application I'm working with.

According to 

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r1/ic2924/index.htm?info/rzaiq/rzaiq
dir.htm
<http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r1/ic2924/index.htm?info/rzaiq/rzai
qdir.htm> 

I should be able to use the DIR subcommand and it will write a file called
DIROUTPUT with a list of the files, which I would then use to build the next
script.

220 FTP server ready.                                   
Enter login ID (xxxxxxxx):                             
331 Password required for xxxxxxx.

Enter an FTP subcommand.

Local working directory is FMLLIB                       
Enter an FTP subcommand.                                
> DIR *.* (File                                         
Use of subcommand DIr not correct.                      
Enter an FTP subcommand.                                

The manual is not really clear; should I use QUOTE or some such?
