Thanks again for all your help on the HTTPS...
The operations manager has been out so I haven't been able to actually get the HTTPAPI loaded yet.
I've started looking at the batch part of my specifications and now have a question about the FTP portion of my project,
since you mentioned FTPAPI.
My project specs call for either Secure FTP or "Frame Relay."
I'm not sure what "Frame Relay" is but I understand I can use regular FTP for that...
If that's a viable solution, we may want to go with that, since I've already used regular FTP.
The other choice is Secure FTP.
I was told that another programmer here already did a project with Secure FTP, so I was hopeful that I'd be able to use his code as the basis for mine... What I just discovered is that his project used Secure FTP using SSL (aka FTPS) but my project calls for FTP using SSH (SFTP). The vendor documentation suggests as examples OpenSSH or PuTTY.
I'm new to all this as well, having only done "regular" FTP from the AS/400 / iSeries.
I only know that I cannot use the method that's already been used here, FTPS.
What does "Frame Relay" mean? Is that a viable alternative for an AS/400?
If that's not a viable solution, will FTPAPI help me for doing SFTP on the AS/400?
Thanks,
Charlie

Are you aware that Scott has an FTPAPI available also?
Be sure to sign up for the FTPAPI mailing list to discuss both FTPAPI and HTTPAPI.

(I might as well also mention, another part of this project is going
to involve sending/receiving XML files by Secure FTP
for a batch process, but that's another can of worms I have to open.)
