RE: FTP Problem

Well...Batman...there are a number of ways to determine this.

Perhaps the easiest is to:

Type CFGTCP on a command line <enter>
Option 1: Work with TCP/IP Interfaces

Look at the IP addresses in the first column. One (or all) of those are
accessible to you via FTP, TELNET, etc...

If you do not have authority to do that you can run this program (you'll
have to compile it of course...):

/*==================================================================*/
/* To compile: */
/* */
/* CRTCLPGM PGM(XXX/TESTCONN) SRCFILE(XXX/QCLSRC) */
/* */
/*==================================================================*/
PGM
DCL VAR(&DEVICENAME) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
DCL VAR(&IPADDRESS) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(15)
DCL VAR(&RECEIVER) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(892)
DCL VAR(&RCVRLENGTH) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4)
DCL VAR(&FORMATNAME) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(8) +
VALUE('DEVD0600')
DCL VAR(&ERRORCODE) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4) +
VALUE(X'00000000')

/* CHANGE VALUE OF &RCVRLENGTH TO BINARY VALUE */
CHGVAR VAR(%BIN(&RCVRLENGTH)) VALUE(892)

/* RETRIEVE NAME OF AS/400 DEVICE THIS JOB IS RUNNING ON */
RTVJOBA JOB(&DEVICENAME)



/* RETRIEVE IP ADDRESS OF CLIENT PC TO SEND SAVE FILE TO */
CALL PGM(QDCRDEVD) PARM(&RECEIVER &RCVRLENGTH +
&FORMATNAME &DEVICENAME &ERRORCODE)

CHGVAR VAR(&IPADDRESS) VALUE(%SST(&RECEIVER 878 15))

SNDPGMMSG MSG('The IP Address of Your PC is:' *BCAT +
&IPADDRESS)
ENDPGM: ENDPGM

Subject: FTP Problem

can't seem to locate the IP address. I ran a utility that tells you the

system IP but it times out. I have done this successfully in the past. Is

there a way to get the IP address for FTP?
