Re: How to FTP an IFS directory

Hi, Paul:

You may want to consider creating a save file and using the SAV command to save the directory and all its subdirectories and files, then use FTP to send the save file, then use the RST command to restore the entire directory subtree on the other system. This has the advantage of also preserving many attributes of the stream files, such as their object owners, etc.

HTH,

Mark

Hello,

Can someone tell me how I can FTP an IFS directory and all of its
contents/subdirectories to the same destination on a remote system?

I have two iSeries boxes that need to have a particular directory kept
in sync when a change is made on one of the systems.

I have tried various combinations of put and mput as shown below
without success, for example I want to keep the /dir1/dir2 directory
in synch:

put /dir/dir2/* /dir/dir2/*

File not found: /dir/dir2/*

put /dir/dir2/*.* /dir/dir2/*.*

File not found: /dir/dir2/*.*


Thanks for any ideas on this one.

Paul
