Re: FTP issue Authentication -- MIDRANGE-L

The statement with the user profile on it should have the word "USER"
removed. That line should just have two values, the logon ID and the
password.

Hi Tommy,

Actually I thought I didn't need the OPEN. I actually tried it with and without the OPEN.
When I tried it without the OPEN I got a different error, below.

Thanks,
Charlie

Output redirected to a file.
Input read from specified override file.
Connecting to host [2]ftp.HOSTEDFTP.COM at address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx using

You must first issue the USER subcommand.

You don't need the OPEN it's specified on the FTP command, it's interpreting OPEN as the user ID

Thanks,

Subject: FTP issue Authentication

I'm having an issue doing FTP, we're using a method we've used in the past.
Source file contains the script and the log goes to a second source file.
I changed some of the names but left the rest the same.

FTP command in CL program:
FTP RMTSYS('SYSNAME.HOSTEDFTP.COM')

Script:
OPEN SYSNAME.HOSTEDFTP.COM
USER prof_name passwd10
CD /Myron catalog
PUT eprodcat_1746207GR.csv
QUIT

The log I'm getting:

Connecting to host [6]ftp.HOSTEDFTP.COM at address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx using p
220 Service ready for new user.
Enter login ID (prof_name):
331 User name okay, need password for OPEN.
530 Authentication failed.
Enter an FTP subcommand.

USER prof_name **********

No response from remote host; all connections closed.

I have the AS/400 profile and password the same as the remote profile and password.
The only thing I can think of is that the remote profile is lower case and the iSeries it's upper case.
I don't know if that matters.

I'm running this signed on under that user profile.
When I do FTP from the command line and enter the user profile & password I successfully get in.
