Same with browser access to
http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/i/access/windows_sp.html

When I click on a Service Pack # like SI49800 I get an empty top
level directory:

Index of
ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/as400/products/clientaccess/win32/v7r1m0/servicepack/si49800/
Up to higher level directory

<empty list; no files listed>

Maybe after November’s Windows Updates THAT will work again! ;-)

FWiW: I also found that directory, and all the parent directories, to be empty. I used an old Mac, both with its FTP client and using FTP:// with Firefox. A Win update is even less likely to change the outcome for me ;-) However I had no issue with their testcase.boulder.ibm.com FTP site.
