What issues were you having?

I've been using QNTC successfully since the AS/400 days. For us, it worked fine then and still works fine now (if you're on 7.3 make sure you have all the QNTC recommended fixes if you use SMB2).

The only real hurdle I know about is with authentication. To authenticate you need either:
1. Matching users and passwords on both systems (no adopted authority allowed)
2. Kerberos

Subject: QNTC to access Windows file server

Because of past issues with trying to mount a Windows file server under the IFS we decided to do all file transfers between our IBM i system and Windows systems using FTP. NFS seemed to be the preferred method for doing this some years ago but at the time our Windows admins were not too keen on adding NFS to the windows files servers. FTP works OK but always seemed to me like there should be a better way when all these servers are in the same data center and some even on the same network switch. We are now on V7.3 and Windows 2016 and wondering if there have been any improvements in this area that we could try.
