Re: FTP completion message 226 or 250?

[Jim Langston <jlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, the very first digit tells you if it completed or not.

2 (as in 250 or 226) means it completed successfully.
5 means it had a permanent error.
Not sure what the others are, but you can find out from the
AS/400 FTP client somewhere (HELP while in the client I think).
