RE: Encrypting FTP transfers

[Bill Brosch <bbrosch@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

How about a batch job on the PC that performs the encrypt, and then runs
an ftp script.  The script sends the file, then does a quote/rcmd to
force the process on the 400.  This process can also provide
notification on the 400 that the file was received.

Subject: Encrypting FTP transfers


We are in the process of setting up a system for a large customer of
ours.  They want to be able to FTP a file to us every week.  This file
will contain sensitive information.  The transfer will be from a PC
directly to our AS/400.  Does anybody have any ideas on how to encrypt
this file in such a manner that the AS/400 can decrypt it with no user
intervention?
