RE: TIMW Issues in FTPAPI

Scott,
	I have a another sort of question. I see that you are doing a FTPAPI sockets connection and I assume you have some sort of RPGLE program with the sockets logic. 

1) Are you passing AS400 data to a Web front end???? 
2) Why don't you just write to a data queue on the AS400 and have a listener program on the front end read the AS400 Data Queue???
3) Can you make Soap calls from the AS400 through the FTPAPI sockets connection????  

Thanks,
	Steve Schoonover

What sort of information ("bread crumbs") are you looking for, Brian?
