Re: Password protected ZIP

Charles,

The issue with password protected ZIP files is the plethora of ZIP password
cracking programs.

A simple means of securing ZIP files is to place them somewhere on one of
your web pages that requires secure sign on. That way, you don't have to
password protect, or sometimes, not even ZIP!

I found a few articles on the web on creating Zip files via the iSeries in a
CLLE program or from a command line.

Is it possible to create a Zip file in CLLE that is password protected?

I know you can do it in WinZip.

My specs call for a file on the IFS to be zipped and password protected, then
sent via SFTP.

We have never created zip files from the iSeries, let alone password protected
them.
I need the easiest method possible, if there's more than one way to do it.

Thanks!
Charlie
