I don't think this is about the client at all. (Nothing to see...these are the droids you are looking for.)
If I recall correctly, Gary is sending to an IBMi partition and I sent to the IBMi that was running the client. When sending to an IBMi, the default for the where to put things IS determined by the CHGFTPA attributes. I changed mine to *PATH and *HOMEDIR, restarted the server and then TESTPUT put the file to :
150 Sending file to /home/MIKEKR/fips.exe
So, it is not about FTPAPI directly. If I sent to a windows or linux server, the file would end up in the root of the defined FTP server. It just looks from the program like it should end up in the root of the file system and instead it goes to the root of the defined server/user profile used.

This has nothing whatsoever to do with what we're discussing here. This changes the attributes of the IBM FTP Server for IBM i. It has no impact whatsoever on FTPAPI.
