FTP and the Mainframe

[shawn149]

Hello,

Ok, this time I am doing a straight FTP using standard FTP to a z/OS 1.7 system with Beyond Compare 3.0.0.458 and the transfer fails. Here is the log with the server address "x'd" out along with my user name.

Has anyone else had problems with normal FTP (unsecured) and z/OS with BC3? (I just want to make sure that it's not me first...)

Thanks,

Shawn

I'm not having a problem connecting to MVS. I'm not sure what's invoking the "RETR IEASYS99" command. I don't have that in my log. That looks like the problem.

Also, I have transfer type set to ASCII.

Shawn, sorry about this. I noticed the error in your log, but by the time I got around to fixing the bug I forgot to get back to you. Ftp-to-ftp copies are broken in the current release and will be fixed in the next release.
