Test results very positive on 1.4. I did find the 1.6 manuals somewhat
easier to understand.

For testing, I used one LPAR to talk to another. I seem to recall that
the server had to be correctly configured for the client to work
properly on a given host.  

One gotcha: don't use a human ID to own certificates. If that ID is ever
deleted, so are the certificates. Or so I understand.  

There is lots of discussion on the RACF list. 

HTH and good luck.

Not sure about the 1.4 manuals, but it is in the 1.6 manuals.

You may want to check the IP User's Guide and Commands.  Look at the 
section on FTCDATA and the parameter SECURE_FTP.
