Kevin,

Wow... I added TIMEOUT 720 and finally got:

226 Transfer complete.                                                          
          
04:21:07(000029CD.1) SC3430 getLastReply: entered                               
          
EZA1617I 427295232 bytes transferred in 805.780 seconds.  Transfer rate 530.29 
Kbytes/sec.

I sure don't understand everything but I won't forget this. Like Hal suggested, 
I kind of thought a firewall or some other gadget was getting in the way. Our 
main network guy told me there was no difference going to my PC or the 
mainframe - not that I *believed* him, but that's what he said :) 

I know network throughput can vary some, but on my earlier failed attempts 
there were jobs that ran much longer and still failed to complete. I got 
transfer rates varying from 20 to 226 Kb/s. The only thing I was changing 
between attempts was different timers and intervals. Sheesh!

I'll be able to get some more experience because there are several more 
products that need to be upgraded before we upgrade the OS. Thanks to everyone 
who helped on this issue. Much appreciated. 

Robert Johnston
