Re: How to configure SSL external access to a database?

[Wayne McAlpine <wayne.mcalpine@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If the client is also an iseries, go here for configuration steps.  You 
initiate a secure session by specifying it on the FTP command.

If the client is a pc, you will need FTP client software such as 
shareware Filezilla.

Here are some other good iseries FTP links:

Hope this helps.
