Re: FTP with server down

["alan shore" <SHOREA@xxxxxxxx>]

Using the command (ENDTCPSVR  SERVER(*FTP)) to ensure that no FTP server was 
running, I was able to FTP from MS DOS to the AS/400 using my AS/400 user 
profile and password. If I am NOT authorized to our FTP authorization list, I 
will be denied. (EXIT programs having been installed and implemented) . If I AM 
authorized to our FTP authorization list, I can proceed, with what I am 
authorized to do, with the regular AS/400 security AND whatever security has 
been applied via the exit programs.

Please explain this statement.  I have tested it and have been unable to
prove that it is true.

Curious,

Steve
