I've just ordered the 5733-SC1 licensed program (it's a no-charge option, btw) in order to be able to run sftp.

However, what I'd really prefer to do is run ftps (SSL version) with the clear command channel option. This is supported as a subcommand of the FTP command in V5R4, but not on our V5R3 box. I would consider this to be a native application.

Does anyone know of a workaround to be able to run CCC at V5R3?

I almost agree with this.  I consider QSHELL to be native just like I
consider the IFS to be native.  However, I consider apps that run in
PASE to not be native.  QSHELL essentially enables UNIX apps to be
ported to i5/OS with the side bonus of giving us handy utilities.  PASE
allows UNIX/AIX apps to run on i5/OS without porting (theoretically,
anyway).  Somewhat of a subtle difference but PASE doesn't particularly
encourage ISVs to support the iSeries while QSHELL does.

yes, I consider anything running on the iSeries processor to be "native"
no matter what the environment is as oppossed to something running on a
PC which I consider non-native.

When you say "native sftp client" what exactly are you referring to? The qshell component of OS400 plus the 5733SC1 licensed program? In my

mind, that's not a native solution since it runs in a unix shell. There
isn't any other way to run an sftp client, is there?

I use the native sftp client on iSeries.
sftp requires either a user/password pair, or key exchange.
If you are looking to automate unattended file transfers then you
must
use keys.
BTW, this is true only for the openssh client, like the one we have
in
PASE.
Putty (for windows) lets you script file transfers without
passwords.

I have been looking for a native sftp client for iSeries for some
time
and saw this a redbook a few months ago but it goes far beyond what
we
need to do and really does not speak to the simple sftp without
using
keys. Our sftp need still uses a userid/password for authentication
just
like ftp and ftps but runs the sftp protocol which the FTP command
will
not do. Has anyone used this native sftp client in this type of environment?
