Keep in mind that name format is relative to whatever the FTP attribute setting
is for your AS400:

                         Change FTP Attributes (CHGFTPA)                      
 .............................................................................
 :                    Initial name format (NAMEFMT) - Help                    
 :                                                                            
 :  Specifies the initial setting of NAMEFMT (file naming format) for each    
 :  new session established with the FTP server.                              
 :                                                                            
 :  The possible values are:                                                  
 :                                                                            
 :  *SAME                                                                     
 :      The initial name format that was previously set does not change;      
 :      otherwise, *LIB is used.                                              
 :                                                                            
 :  *LIB:                                                                     
 :      The LIBRARY/FILE.MEMBER naming format is used.  This is equivalent    
 :      to specifying the SITE NAMEFMT 0 subcommand to the FTP server.        
 :                                                                            
 :  *PATH:                                                                    
 :      The path naming format is used for files.  This setting is            
        equivalent to specifying the SITE NAMEFMT 1 subcommand to the FTP  
        server.
