If you have an example or if you go into option 6 what do you get?
Here's what I got,
ftp.software.ibm.com
EZA1554I Connecting to: ftp-www3-software.southdata.ibm.com 170.225.126.17
port
: 21.
EZA2590E connect error from initIPv4Connection - EDC8127I Connection timed
out.
(errno2=0x00000000)
Seems like either we are blocking port 21 or IBM has it blocked.

using FTPTOOLS or FTPTOOLX job.
I just re-downloaded it from "ftp.software.ibm.com" directly to the mainframe,
and it worked fine.
You do not perhaps have this blocked on your firewall?
I know there were some FTP address changes announced by IBm a few months ago -
I went to our network/firewall person and asked to open this up.
