Indeed, it would be. :-) We must infer from your post (you didn't say so explicitly) that you want to use the z/VM FTP client to move files around, but you are getting the UNKNOWN CP/CMS COMMAND error. Having FTPSERVE up and running on the remote VM system is half the battle, but there's more. You first need to VMLINK TCPMAINT 592 on the client-side system. That's where the TCP/IP "user" files are located. In particular, FTP MODULE is (the FTP client) is there.
