Somebody showed them how to access them through FTP from z/OS.
Now there's a loss of some element of control because now they can do
whatever they want with the files once they get them onto their
workstation.
Similar issue was discussed lately.
They *already have READ* to those report. They *already can copy the
reports* i.e. using Copy-Paste method (assuming they use PC's instead of
"hard terminals"). Last but not least they always can read the reports
and make notes on the paper or in brain directly.
The only difference between those access method is ease of (mis)use.
It's easier to copy whole report using ftp, but it is still possible to
do it without ftp. However *part* of report can be copied using any method.
So - they worry about whole report, but everything is OK with any
(small) part of it.
