RE: commercial solution for iSeries FTP -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

James,
If I am following your comment, does that mean using FTPAPI would be entirely reasonable from your perspective ?

'standard' FTP: the main site we send/receive with does not use SFTP

We have Arpeggio on our list: but it seems exclusively for SFTP ?

We also have Linoma Software on our list: any comments ?

Hmm. The only problem I've ever had with the FTP client built into the operating system is that it doesn't do well when uploading large files directly to our public FTP server (probably from the typical cable broadband upload bottleneck), and eventually gives up.
