Hi all, I was asked by a friend of mine at another company to ask a
question here about using FTP client jobs with AT-TLS. He works for a
major company and wants to see how others do this.
His question is this: "We currently handle support tickets from
customers, and they often need to send mainframe files to us. Right now,
we allow plain old FTP (using port 21) and secured FTP (also port 21
plus some other random port, using the AUTH command), and we also
support the use of SFTP from the Unix side via port 22. We have been
asked to provide a job to customers to use AT-TLS on their mainframes.
Since our host servers are not mainframes, can we let customers use
AT-TLS, and what do we need to do on our side?"
I have done a lot of things over the years, but networking isn't my
skillset, and doesn't sound like a bundle of fun. Can any of you fine
folks help my friend Jim? If it is only some JCL needed and you wold
share a sample, that would be great. Or if you have a website or pdf to
help him and me understand this better, please pass it on! I keep
hearing more about AT-TLS, so I figure I might want to learn a little
bit about it.
Thank you and best regards,
Billy Ashton
