Michael,

The SITE command, by definition, is for commands that are not part of the FTP protocol. So they definitely will be host system dependent.

QUOTE is for bypassing the FTP client. It's for sending commands to the server that the client doesn't understand.

sftp is not FTP. It doesn't support many of FTP's things -- and it sure as heck doesn't support proprietary things that aren't even part of the FTP standard!

I'd suggest an alternative... except that despite having written several FTP applications from the ground up, I have NO CLUE what 'lrecl=256 blksize=27904' does! They look like commands that would be used to control a tape drive...

I'm trying to do the equivalent of "quote site lrecl=256 blksize=27904
recfm=fb" when using sFTP from the iSeries. Is this host system
dependent? Does this command (quote or site) even exist in sFTP?

Thanks...
