Re: Transfer files between Power i and local Win servers

no drag and drop - all automated (but user may click an icon to execute a
batch stream). Others are batch processes originating on Power i and either
put or get from Win.
The mapped drives were a way for some win products to push/get Power i IFS
files - but most of that is replaced - one more to go..

With user drag and drop it often entails some additional software if you
are not using mapped drives.

In the age of ransomware, i'd like to remove all mapped drives and replace
old ftp (long overdue).
There are many xfers, in both directions, between local Win servers and
Power i.
Some are old ftp, some are copy via mapped drives.
All are automated batch programs (either batch files on Win or clp driven
ftp on i.
No budget for hefty products.
sftp is in use to external vendors.
Is sftp the way to go, or is there another open method. V7.3..
