Subject:  FTP Server Exit Program; Word of caution



To any others who are  implementing  an  FTP  server exit programs, a word
of caution in regards to  the parameters in the documentation. It describes
Operation Identifier 6 as Send FIle and 7 as Receive file. My line of
thinking is that "Send"  would mean that I was sending the file from my
client  to  the AS400. Anyway  it  actually works the opposite of what I
interpret it to mean. Operation ID 7 indicates a request to Send the file
from a client to the AS400 and operation 6 indicates a request to transfer
a file from the AS400 to the client.
