Re: Fix Central

5722SS1 V5R3 PTF SI19413 will be your friend. With this PTF you can 
SNDPTFORD and get CUMEs and GROUPs downloaded directly to your iSeries 
as images. The download runs in batch and uses HTTP and HTTPS protocol 
so if your iSeries can reach the internet you're good to go.

I have to disagree about download director. It's a wonderful piece of 
work that in my opinion just works. I would say that the majority of the 
problems with any Fix Central issues are the Java on the PC side. If you 
have the current Sun java and use Firefox (most of the Fix Central 
developers use it) you will have pretty decent results.
