Re: Is there a FTP option within PASE?

The others have answered. However you may be confused by some
informational messages and think there's something wrong so I'll give you
an example.

Is your remote system an IBM i or not?

From your IBM i:

FTP othersystem
Now, if your other system is an IBM i use this command: namefmt 1
If your other system is not an IBM i use this command: locsite namefmt 1
namefmt tells both systems to use ifs type naming
locsite namefmt tells just the local system to use ifs type naming.
Then it's quite easy to do commands like: ls /tmp

If your starting out ftp from a system other than IBM i then you would
use: quote site namefmt 1
This tells the ftp client to ignore the command and just pass it on to the
remote system. Like this DOS example:
C:\Users\rob>ftp gdisys
Connected to gdisys.corp.dekko.com.
220-QTCP at GDISYS.CORP.DEKKO.COM.
220 Connection will close if idle more than 5 minutes.
501 OPTS unsuccessful; specified subcommand not recognized.
User (gdisys.corp.dekko.com:(none)): rob
331 Enter password.
Password:
230 ROB logged on.
ftp> quote site namefmt 1
250 Now using naming format "1".
ftp> ls /tmp
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
125 List started.
/tmp/EMHDR060 - Copy - Copy.TXT
...
It's not required to use quote site namefmt 1. You can just use namefmt 1
to a non IBM i target but you will get a message.

If you are already in namefmt 1 and you need a db2 item you can do commands
like
ls /qsys.lib/mylib.lib/myfile.file/*.mbr
get /qsys.lib/mylib.lib/mysavf.savf
Save files are a strange exception where even though it's a .file extension
(*FILE object type) it allows you to use the object attribute. You can
just use .file if you want but sending that off to IBM with .savf is 'self
documenting'.
