Re: FTP IFS to RS 6000

Emmanuel

How do you want this to work? Can the FTP transfer occur right after putting the file in the IFS? If so, you can build an FTP script to handle this.

You need to build the script (I used Query Management query to replace lines in a shell, using substitution variables for the password and filename), something like this and modified to your needs:

&userid &password
nam 1
lcd &localpath
cd &remotepath
bin
put &localfilename [&remotefilename]
quit

The script can be a single-field data physical or a source physical.

    Note: Depending on the remote FTP server, the &userid and
        &password may need to be on separate lines.

    Note: There is a security issue, because the password and user
        ID are exposed. It might be a good idea to use anonymous login
        at the remote FTP server, with appropriate directory restrictions
        there.

Then run the following - the override of OUTPUT gives you a printout of the results.

/* Execute FTP script */
             OVRDBF     FILE(INPUT) TOFILE(QTEMP/FTPSCRIPT)
             OVRPRTF    FILE(OUTPUT) TOFILE(QPRINT)
             FTP        RMTSYS(&IPADDR)
             DLTOVR     FILE(INPUT OUTPUT)

MC Hi,

We are generating stream files in an IFS directory and we want to FTP the
stream files to the RS 6000. The process will be constant, therefore I am
looking for a batch processing that would allow us to achieve that.
