Re: FTP Question

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Are you saying that the programmer took FTP down on the 400, or on the
mainframe?

Ports, BTW, are not physical entities, they are just software values agreed
on between client and server. Can't be 'damaged', in a hardware sense.

You can set whether TCP/IP servers start automatically when TCP/IP is
started on the 400. Run the CHGFTPA command and prompt it (F4). Check out
the autostart parameter. If it's no, decide whether you want it to
autostart. Otherwise, you need to do STRTCPSVR *FTP, as someone else wrote
manually or in some program.
