FTP from an AS/400 machine

[Oscar Farga]

Hi,

 I'm having trouble trying to download some files with from an AS/400
server. The same script works with another FTP server with identical
configuration and the ftp server on the AS/400 is working correctly. If
I run ant in debug mode I can see it connects, changes to the folder but
I can't get files or list them. I tried with followsymlinks on the
fileset but then I get an exception when trying to access a folder named
"K". There is no "K" folder in the usr/mss folder but there's a "MK"
folder. Any ideas?

Thanks

Oscar

            <property name="ftproot" value="/usr/mss"/>

                                   <fileset dir="in"

                                               <include name="**" />

                                               

                                   </fileset>

                        </ftp>

                        

            </target>

</project> 

 

 

This is the output from ant -debug
