Re: transferring files from IBM i To UNIX Server FTP

Hello Gio,

When we are transferring files (PF-DTA) from IBM i To UNIX Server FTP, in
the target UNIX Server FTP, the file has LF at end of each line . The
customer the receive the file, tell us that he need CRLF .. how can we
obtain that result (CRLF instead of LF ) ???

UNIX native line ending is LF only. Transfer goes to a UNIX server, and the text mode doing translation from EBCDIC to ASCII also translates to the correct line ending for UNIX. Nothing wrong on your side.

I'd declare this to the problem of the customer. There are multiple ways to add a CR at end of line of the transferred file on UNIX, such as

sed 's/$/\r/' < infile > outfile

He can "fix" this easily on his server.

:wq! PoC
