Subject: Re: "managed FTP" on the cheap

get rid of the script and use Scott's FTPAPI...
http://www.scottklement.com/ftpapi/

But download the beta version as it is the most recent (I'd take Scott's beta code over most vendor's production code, beside the only reason it's still "beta" is that he want to update the examples) http://www.scottklement.com/ftpapi/beta/

I am working on an EDI 856 ASN project.

We're currently in pilot phase (delivering product to a few, selected
customers requiring ASN) and this weekend had a problem where the
service handing ASN document transfers to our customers started
returning:

"Cannot connect to host 000.000.00.00 at address."
"Try again later."

(double quotes mine)

The ftp script in question has been running reliably the past few
weeks and had run successfully about 7:30 pm yesterday, Sunday, Jan
26th.

At about 10:15 pm, we started "receiving" the cannot connect message.

Our ASN document service is also looking into the issue, but they
don't yet see a cause for failed FTP connections.

Question: is there a fairly eash way to "catch" an FTP "Cannot
connect" message and then either continue the transfer or
"re-schedule" ?

My operations manager said he had recommended the purchase of a
"Managed FTP solution" but was turned- down due to cost.
