RE: FTP client with Digital Certificate

Gord,

     The FTP client supports SSL without a problem.  It's the digital 
certificate that is the problem.  Apparently the digital certificate only works 
on the ftp server (for incoming ftp), not the ftp client (for outgoing ftp).  
Why would IBM implement digital certificates and not include the ftp client?  
Windows does it, UNIX does it. ISeries doesn't?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something but I am doing secure FTP using the
as/400 FTP client.  Other than the certificates, the only thing I'm doing
different than normal FTP is using port 990.
