First to be clear your iSeries is acting as the client? The FTP server on the iSeries at V6R1 does not have any place to set passive mode parms which is your public IP and data port range.

If you are the client, can you connect from a PC client to the remote server? The remote server generally has 2 or more ports open for clients to establish connections. 990 is the implicit FTPS port. You can also connect to port 21 and issue the AUTH TLS command for an explicit FTPS connection.

Here is a link to a wiki on the subject: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol

Thanks, how did you get it to use 991? I do have 990/989 opened through the FW, but I am not selecting 989, it's the active FTP transfer port that my iSeries is using by default. What is weird is I can see 989 open on the server system in NETSTAT, but it just sits there are never transfers data. I think the FW has logic that blows this up because it cannot "see" the packets.
