Thanks Dennis. Already did go direct to the server with remote console
as the FTP user and could browse anywhere I wanted in explorer. It is
not iSeries only. It does the same using core-ftp from my PC. Server is
Windows 2008.

First thing I would try to do, is to see if this is unique to the i.
I'm
betting not. Try this same action from a PC, and see what happens.
If (when?) that fails, then I would go to the server in question (what
OS
does that server use, by the way?). Get to that directory, and try the
same
cd command from there. Same failure? Yup, that'd be because of
control
characters or other unprintables in at least one of the directory names.

I am FTPing from an iSeries to a Windows server to copy some files. Iparticular
have done this many times before without a problem. On this
server the developers of the application decided to use periods(.)and
underlines(_) as part of folder names. So a path on the windowsserver
might besee
apphome/CF.SOURCE/_HOLD_/filename
I can get to the home directory of apphome and do a ls command and
the CF.SOURCE folder but when I try to do a "cd CF.SOURCE" it says itfor
is not found. I tried cd "CF.SOURCE" and cd 'CF.SOURCE' and nothing
works. Just for fun at had our Windows admin make the home folder
the user the CF.SOURCE folder and I can then get inside that folderbut
can't cd into the _HOLD_ folder. It is not an authority issue as theserver
same username/password I am using for the FTP can remote to the
and see all the folders and files. I think this must be an FTP issuesomeone
but I don't think it is unique to iSeries FTP but still hoping
here might have some suggestions.
