An older redbook "V4 TCP/IP for AS/400: More Cool Things Than Ever" has a
decent chapter of the process, but it's an old ref

setup FTPS : (FTP over SSL) is very simple
This is what everyone says, but:
1. obtain a certificate (or generate one using
DigitalCertificateManager)
You've already lost me. Remember, I asked for something for dummies.
How does one obtain or generate a certificate? What is
DigitalCertificateManager, and how do I get to it or run it?
2. Install the certificate using DCM (http://youras400:2001)
I hope the location of DCM is self-evident to those who have the proper
authorities. When I go to port 2001 of our i, I don't see anything in IBM
Navigator for i called DCM or Digital Certificate Manager. It could be that
my profile does not have visibility to it.
Easy-to-follow instructions for dummies would mention where in Navigator to
navigate to.
3. assign the certificate to FTP client / FTP server using DCM
Again, I hope the steps to assign a certificate to the FTP client are very
obvious once you are in DCM. I can't verify this for myself.
4. done use it ; client FTP RMTSYS(... ) SECCNN(*SSL)
Thanks, that step I can follow.
