It's been a long time, but in my previous place of employment the company acquired another company running Interlink. I recall a nightmare when it came to converting ftp because of differences in option settings for things like the handling of trailing blanks and the truncation or wrapping of data if data exceeds the record length for a fixed length record. I cannot remember if there were differences in the default settings for ftp on the two products or if the customization in the two shops introduced the differences.
Since you are already familiar with the current set up, it might not be a big deal to make sure the configurations have the same option settings.
