FTPAPI is great but I believe it's not secure enabled; we need secure connections in most of our FTP process outside the company. More and more our vendors are asking for SFTP file transfer.

We use two methods. FTP2 from TAATOOLs or SFTP from GOANYWHERE Managed File Transfer. If you need SSH FTP capabilities this GA is really great.

I think it's both true and desirable that more and more companies are
using SFTP.

It's also true that Scott's FTPAPI, while probably the best way to
interface with FTP through RPG, doesn't handle SFTP:

One no-monetary-cost option for SFTP on the i is iSeriesPython and the
pysftp module, which I find very easy to use. There are also several
free options on PASE.
