I agree. The person in charge requested FTP and FTP more or less is an easy solution.
If I could quickly figure out how to get the server to call an RPG program I would do that in heartbeat. My problem is I don't know what is necessary to do that. I downloaded the HTTPAPI roughly a month ago to see what I could learn and hopefully someday use. I got as far as running the test programs, but I kept getting the host unknown error message.
Coincidentally I can't PING anything outside of our local network. My assumption is that something isn't configured correctly on our 400, or our Firewall is preventing me from reaching the outside world.
On top of that I'm still relatively new at this company (2 months) and I didn't want to start asking questions as to why I couldn't reach certain websites from our 400.
