Lizette, It has been years since I worked with Unix FTP, but Windows also uses the CRLF and I routinely FTP between my PC and the Mainframe. All I do is specify a text transfer and the FTP utility does the translation. I get one PC text line to one mainframe text line. Mine are usually FB LRECL 80. So the only difference is the LRECL.
Thank you and have a Terrific day!
