Dave: We move files to our Windows servers and AIX servers all the time. Here is a snip of JCL and ftp commands that I have used. We use the (EXIT parm on all our JCL to ensure that rc come back to the JCL ftp client.
Hope this helps. //*- 20070718 test getting a file from the reporting server LSCHW //*-------------------------------------------------------------- //*- Step FTPSTEP: //*- get a file from the reporting server //*-------------------------------------------------------------- //FTPSTEP EXEC PGM=FTP,REGION=4M, // PARM='(EXIT TIMEOUT 100' //*NETRC DD DSN=SYS1S.TCPIP.NETRC,DISP=SHR //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //OUTPUT DD SYSOUT=* //INPUT DD * 192.168.1.105 userid password - this is the userid and password of the windows box. cd Transfers/Journal_imp dir lcd 'mfuser' pwd lpwd bin get journal_in_20070718.fred journal.D070718.leon quit /* // Leon Schwering Technical Architect 407 ETR Concession Co.

All of the info I can come up with talks about how to perform this from the Windows side. Windows initiated receive. I want to do this from the MVS side. When the file(s) are ready, send them down to the PC. Not when the file(s) are ready, go over to the PC, and run FTP from there to receive the file(s). Is this possible? Is there anything like an FTP daemon that can run on Windows to receive the data and put it in the desired location? --Dave Day ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
