Re: Secure connection error, return code 6000 (FTP)

Ah, ok. so it is a client application. I didn't know the FTP server would
ask if you wanted to trust. Is that for just the one time, or will it
trust (ie import the CA chain) when you say yes the first time? If it's
the latter that would be nice. If not, that does blow. haha.

Brad,
Read the OP.
He's hosting a FTP server. Not a client. GETURI, MAILTOOL and API
settings to ignore expired certificates have NOTHING to do with this.

with

GETURI and MAILTOOL...

IBM should do the same (simple yes/no flag to ignore not trusted

errors).

That would be at least a step further for them. I even think Scott

Klement

has code out there in HTTPAPI and other stuff to ignore the "not

trusted"

errors, so there's no excuse not to do it.

I know there was a lengthy discussion about this a while back.

We have a hosted FTP server that is used extensively by our processes.
The wheels fell off this weekend (again) because the certificate

updated,

and is not trusted in our DCM.

What, if anything, is IBM doing about this? This is not an issue in

the

PC world.
This is only getting worse with the rapid expiration of certs.
