While Kurt was typing, we got an update from the team that owns it telling us that the testcase server will likely require SSL or SSH connections by, or some time, in May. Likewise, ecurep will discontinue support some time later this year. From the ecurep website: "For 2018 several changes are scheduled to go live. One of these changes will be to require you to log in using your IBM ID. Please make sure that you own such an ID. We will also stop supporting plain FTP server for manual data upload. FTPS (FTP over TLS) encryption will be enforced to meet legal requirements."
