Wc3270 probably includes IND$FILE but not FTP. I know only one
(now obsolescent) 3270 emulator which includes FTP (server!),
and it never ran on Windows.
If he had WinZip (which he says he hasn't) and WinZip could create
a .pax archive (I believe it can extract them) ...
I don't know whether the OP's lack of choice on software is due to finances or
administrative restrictions. I'm going to go ahead on the assumption that it's
a lack of dollars.
wc3270 is a variant of x3270, built to run on Windows. x3270 contains IND$FILE
support.

Passport provided a FTP client for Windows. I believe this has been taken over
by Rocket and renamed to something else, and I don't know whether they retained
the FTP client.

Windows itself contains a line-mode FTP client. If you want GUI, FileZilla is
good and free.
7-Zip is a good free alternative to WinZip.
