I thought in your original post you were FTPing to a
server.. if that's the case, then the FTP server really
doesn't play a role here.  You're using the FTP client.

You said bell south sent you a certificate.  Did they send
a certificate or a CA (or both).  If they require that you
do client authentication then you'll need to assign the
cert they sent (which I assume is the one for the client
authentication) to the FTP client, not the server.

If not, and this is "simple SSL", then you should try and
find out for sure if you have the CA in the *SYSTEM store
or have the right CA assigned to the FTP client
application.

NOT TRUSTED ROOT is pretty specific of an error.  So I'd
make sure you have the CA installed properly, at least in
the system store.  If you have the cert on your PC, you
should be able to double click on it to see the hierarchy
of  authorities.

I ended and started the FTP server since making the
changes in the DCM.

Here is a summary of what I've done in the DCM:

1. Selected the certificate store of *SYSTEM

2. Keyed the password and hit Continue.

3. Manage Certificates

4. Import certificate

5. Selected Certifcate Authority and pressed Continue.

6. Keyed in the IFS file path and name containing the
certificate from BellSouth.

7. Gave it a label.

8. Manage Applications.

9. Define CA Trust List

10. Selected Server, pressed Continue (Also did this for
Client).

11. Selected OS/400 TCP/IP FTP Server, Define CA Trust
List button.

12. Checked the certificate labels for BellSouth and
pressed OK.

13. ENDTCPSVR *FTP

14. STRTCPSVR *FTP

15. Get same error.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanx, PLA

You have to end/restart the FTP server. Did you add the

new root to the FTP

Server and Client trust list?
