FTP Client Problem.

[tkennedy@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

We have a process that is using the AS/400 FTP client to put a file
on a unix server over a VPN.  Every once in a while the connection is
broken between the server and the client.  When this happens the
AS/400 FTP client hangs for 600 seconds.... there does not seem to be
a way to modify that 600 second value.

This only happens with AS/400 FTP client.... I tried countless others
and each one allows you to set the time-out value at the client
level. On the AS/400 FTP Server you can reset the transfer and
inactivity values with the quote time XXX XXX command, but this does
not help with the AS/400 FTP client.

My question is --> Is there a equivalent command for the AS/400 FTP
client? or some other way to change the 600 second value?


Any help would be appreciated.
