How about changing your rtnmodser program to write the information to a one-record file in QTEMP. Then you can get that file via FTP, read the record, and do whatever you need to do with the information.

Would anybody happen to know of a way to determine model number, serial number, number of processors, number of LPARs, and current LPAR through an FTP connection? We have a small program we upload ahead of the product in our web-based installation utility, that retrieves that information (so a trial-period authorization code can be automatically generated and installed) and puts it into an escape message (using CPF9898), which was the only way I could find at the time for a program to return its output through an FTP connection. It works beautifully on V4R2 through V5R2. I think it may also work on V3R2. But on V5R3, it fails. Instead of >> ftp> quote rcmd call rtnmodser >> 550-Error occurred on command call rtnmodser. >> 550 Model 170 Serial 1047YBM Processors 1 LPARS 01 CurrPar 00 >> ***************. >> ftp> It comes back with >> ftp> quote rcmd call qgpl/rtnmodser >> 550-Error occurred on command call qgpl/rtnmodser. >> 550 Cause code is CPF9898; message text not available. >> ftp> Yet it works fine in a terminal session. One thought: The original version (which only returned model and serial) was in CL. I had to change to ILE C in order to return the additional information. Is there anything I can do in C, that will produce output on an FTP connection, that I couldn't do in CL? -- JHHL
