FTP with MVS Secured Server
Question...
The FTP.EXE program with NT allows me to connect to a secured MVS Server
with a script as follows which logs on and saves back a copy of the
directory:
open <Servername>
<Username>
<password>
lcd h:\
cd '<dir1>.<dir2>.<dir3>.<dir4>'
ls * members.txt
quit
What I am trying to accomplish is the same login using IE. My problem
lies in it seems I can log in with the following syntax but it cannot
find a "\" directory and returns an error.
I get "unable to find the file or directory named: /".
I get "unable to find the file or directory named: /<dir1>..<dir4>".
I have tried multiple things to get it to read the directory with no
luck. The anonymous login to Microsoft's ftp site works fine:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com
Is my problem a) logging into a secured site using IE (I do not get an
error regarding login); b) not knowing how to specify the MVS directory
structure in IE; c) both; or d) I just don't know what I am doing at all
and should give up :(
Any suggestions??
Thanks,
Chris
