Re: Intermittent problem with FTP client V5R2 over PPP

How are they fixed for PTF's? We had to get some extra fixes when a client 
communicating via PPP with Palm Pilots did their upgrade a year or so ago, 
but I don't know which ones. I had to call the support line.

        Subject:        Intermittent problem with FTP client V5R2 over PPP


I am having a frustrating problem with some code that I am testing.
Basically the code starts a dial up PPP session (to a bank) from the
iSeries, after connected, it FTPs a file and then quits.  The code was
developed on my 5.1 box and has worked flawlessly (in order to test the
error trapping and recovery I had to unplug the modem, the thing never
failed!).
Today I moved the code to my clients system.  Only different is they are
running V5R2.  There is no SSL, just plain old FTP.  To verify it is not 
my
code, I just tried to manually start the FTP client, connect to the remote
system and enter commands.  The FTP client hung up on me.  So, it is not 
my
code, the only thing left to suspect is the OS.
A quick search of the archives did not bring up this specific problem. Can
anyone shed any light?
