Mark > Need to know how to connect to an FTP server which is listening on port 22.
What you "need to know" is what using port number 22 as the well-known port for the "service" actually - in all probability with a just about infinitely small possibility that all your responders are wrong - really means. > EZA1456I Connect to ? > EZA1736I xxxxxxx 22 <- port number > EZA1554I Connecting to: xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxx.COM 1xx.xx.xxx.xx port: 22. > SSH-2.0-Sun_SSH_1.1 What this indicates is that the server now expects to operate the SSH protocol - as explained in the Wikipedia article to which Mark Regan kindly gave you a reference. The search "word" "SSH" does not cause a "hit" - as a "whole word" in the z/OS Communications Server IP Users Guide and Commands manual which I take to be a bad omen. However, as you can tell from the Wikipedia article, this whole topic of "secure FTP" is a confused and confusing matter so give it a try and see what happens - preferably with easily replaced test files! > Is that all I need. Very probably *not* and - I see from Mark Regan's following post - definitely not - and later Paul Gilmartin shows what happens when two protocol partners speaking different languages - maybe to some extent from the same language group[1] - just end up staring each other in the face and then walk away! Chris Mason [1] Not always a problem. I was very impressed when a Spanish colleague chatted away quite happily to an Italian taxi driver in each other's native tongue!
