[AlanPruitt@xxxxxxxxx (Alan Pruitt)]

< Carl Galgano asks:

< I have a client who has an AS400 & RS6000 on an ethernet network.  We are
< currently using FTP to transfer files and it works fine.  The AS400 is the
< client and the RS6000 is the server.

< We now have a requirement that the AS400 run the program on the RS6000 that
< creates the file that is to be transfered to the AS400.  I would like to add
< an FTP command in my FTP script that will allow me to do this.  The RS600
< programmer to me to use the following to execute the program from a $ prompt
< on the RS6000:
< run pgmname
< I thought I could use the QUOTE subcommand to do what I wish to do what I
< need, something like this:
< QUOTE run stc.322gatex
< However the server comes back and says that RUN is not recognized.  See the
< screen below.  Does anyone sknow if this can be done, and if it can, how do
< I do it.


Carl, the AS/400 TCP supports the quote command.
The RS6000 TCP does not support the quote command.
