Re: OS400/Unix authority settings

Dennis:

The OP did not say they were using FTP directly; they said they were using some product from "Townsend."

Perhaps that product is actually saving the IFS streamfile in a save file, and then using FTP "under the covers" to send the save file, and then restoring the *STMF from the save file? In that case, the authority settings on the source system would "matter" ... I think.

But the caveat here (and maybe someone already said it; sorry if I missed

via FTP they will be set to that system's default umask. Changes made to
permissions on your system will not carry forward elsewhere. If you're
sending another way (scp, for example, or via zip/tar file to be extracted)
things may be different.
