I need to connect to a vendor's FTP site to do a file transfer from our i.
We are at V5R4. It has to be a secure transfer and they have given us
the options of SFTP or FTPs. I'm trying FTPs by doing:

FTP RMTSYS('ftp.vendor.com') PORT(6990) SECCNN(*SSL)

When I tried it the first time I got a -23 error. The help text indicated
that this was a certificate problem. We are using a user-id and password
with no certificate. When I try now I'm just getting "Cannot connect to
host" "try agin later". For what it's worth, I can get connected from my
PC using Filezilla.

I've read a few entries in the archives but didn't get any good ideas
other than finding that FTP with SSL is basically FTPs. At least that's
my understanding. Any ideas would be appreciated.
