There's no doubt that FTP is the most convenient communication tool on the iSeries. Being able to do a manual transfer here and there is good, but to get some real use out of this type of utility, you need to be able to program it and control it using table-driven variables. This opens the door to scheduled transfers and the ability to feed data for business users on multiple platforms on a regular basis. How would you automate an FTP function? How would you go about creating a process to transfer a different file every day to different systems, the same file to different destinations or a combination of both? Thibault Dambrine shows you how easy it can be. >> LISTEN to broadcast: http://webevents.broadcast.com/techtarget/search400/061703/index.asp?loc=09 >> DOWNLOAD the handout from Thibault's presentation: http://search400.techtarget.com/search400/downloads/Dambrine_slides.ppt =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= TAKE OUR POLL | Search400.com Reader Survey Do you believe your job to be more secure or less secure than it was at this time last year? >> CAST your vote: http://search400.techtarget.com/#poll?Offer=0812track =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= MISSING LINK | I told you never to call while I'm working! Worshippers in Yemen may have felt sympathy for the man begging for change at their mosque. But that sympathetic vibe quickly changed. In fact, it died right around the time his cell phone came alive and rang from deep inside his bag. Evidently, he forgot to turn it off (or set it to vibrate) before he went to "work" begging. The Yemeni news agency Saba reports that the bogus beggar took off right after the ill-timed call. The guy is hardly destitute -- there are only about five telephones, landline and mobile, for every 100 people in Yemen.
