Re: FTP manual and Regarding stream file on IFS

Is K211 a folder under your current directory or a file? Based on a couple
of your examples I think it's a file, but you treat it as a folder.
if it's a folder on the IFS, then simply "cd k211" that will put you in
"/home/k21/k211" then you should see whatever you have there.
If it's a library, then namefmt 0, should allow "cd k211" and then you
should see the objects in that library.

Example: NAMEFMT 0

pwd

257 "QGPL" is current library.
(ls will now show all the objects in QGPL)
QAAPFILE.QAAPF1X2
QAAPFILE.QAAPF2X2
QAAPFILE$.QAAPF1X1
QAAPFILE$.QAAPF1X2
QAAPFILE$.QAAPF2X2
QAAPFILE#.QAAPF1X1
QAAPFILE#.QAAPF1X2
QAAPFILE#.QAAPF2X2
QAAPFILE@.QAAPF1X1
QAAPFILE@.QAAPF1X2
QAAPFILE@.QAAPF2X2

note: filename.member

NAMEFMT 1 (QGPL is still my current directory, but now I'm using IFS
naming)
QAAPFILE.FILE/QAAPF1X1.MBR
QAAPFILE.FILE/QAAPF1X2.MBR
QAAPFILE.FILE/QAAPF2X2.MBR
QAAPFILE$.FILE/QAAPF1X1.MBR
QAAPFILE$.FILE/QAAPF1X2.MBR
QAAPFILE$.FILE/QAAPF2X2.MBR
QAAPFILE#.FILE/QAAPF1X1.MBR
QAAPFILE#.FILE/QAAPF1X2.MBR
QAAPFILE#.FILE/QAAPF2X2.MBR

Notice the object is listed as filename.file/membername.mbr.

Now CD into the IFS:

cd /home/agile

250-NAMEFMT set to 1.
250 "/home/agile" is current directory.

Note that it sets NAMEFMT 1 for you.

ls

229 Entering Extended Passive Mode (|||37179|).
125 List started.
.bash_history
sslversion.txt
mynewfolder/

So if you want to push a text file to a database member (source file?) then
you would

namefmt 1
lcd intothecorrectlocaldirectory
cd /qsys.lib/mylib.lib
put mytextfile.txt mysource.file/mymem.mbr

Spend some time learning what IBM i file systems are and how to use them.
Also as Patrik suggested, learn FTP.
Most of your posts indicate you are not doing any research or learning on
your own, simply asking questions of the group.
We will respond (and have), however we also expect you to put some effort
into it as well.

sequential steps to do so)

This is not related to programming. Please divert to the main
