Re: FTP GET into IFS

Yes

NAM 1

is good enough. You can also do

lcd /

Which will trigger ftp to automatically switch to NAM 1

You need QUOTE SITE NAM 1 if you are accessing the IBM i FTP server from another client.

Any suggestions much appreciated!

You're in the QSYS.LIB file system and naming convention.

I think you're looking for:
