An experiment with FTP from the command line:
Remote system type is MVS.
ftp> quote site filetype=jes
200 SITE command was accepted
ftp> quote site file=jes
200 SITE command was accepted
ftp> quote site fil=jes
200-Unrecognized parameter 'fil=jes' on SITE command.
200 SITE command was accepted
ftp> quote site fubar
200-Unrecognized parameter 'fubar' on SITE command.
ftp> quit
221 Quit command received. Goodbye.
BTW, I am exceedingly unhappy with the "200" status codes from
the last two SITE commands, but IBM has some twisted logic
according to whichthe behavior is proper. From a more rational
(Solaris) server:
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> quote site checksum /etc/services
200 3645102391 4438 /etc/services
ftp> quote site checksum /dev/null
500 /dev/null: not a plain file.
ftp> quit
