Re: ftp to external server by name

Hi Jim
you are going to need to add a DNS server address to your iSeries. Check out option 12 on the CFGTCP menu

I need to ftp to another server (ftp-in.usps.gov) daily from a clp pgm.
I'm told the ip address may change often and i must access by name.

If I enter a host table entry, i would be hardcoding the current ip address, which

What can I do?
