 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
