Hi:
Have the opportunity to use LIBFTP to retrieve
a directory of files (MGET).
When I connected to the remote FTP server
(Microsoft FTP Service Version 5.0) manually via the i5 FTP client, the FTP
session hung up when I issued the ls command - saw the message that it entered
Passive Mode (eventually got message 425 Can't open data connection). Fine, I
can manually issue a SENDPASV 0 command to get around that.
So while going thru the sample pgm TESTMGET, making
my own version, I forgot to use the ftp_passive procedure but the program
retrieved the list of files and performed the GET for each one,
perfectly.
So my question (or observation) is that Passive
Mode is Off by default in the FTP APIs?
Scott, thanks once again for a great
job.
