Sorry that thread was titled "RECEIVE ORDER failing"   Was using FTPs to 
download, converted to HTTPS through proxy server, all is good now.

I haven't seen your HTTPS novel, so... have you tried FWFRIENDLY?

Subject: FTP to IBM through a local proxy

All,

We used to be able to FTP TLS/SSL encrypted data (dumps, etc) to IBM by opening 
the firewall at our end to certain IBM IP addresses/ports(21) like 
testcase.boulder.ibm.com, etc.  Somewhere along the line, I believe IBM changed 
their servers to redirect the data connection off port 21 onto a range in the 
65024-65535 which now fails miserably, and the PTB here won't entertain opening 
up a range of ports like that.  I've managed to get our SMPE RECEIVE ORDER 
fixed by converting to HTTPS and coding our proxy server.    You may recall my 
ailings on this topic a week or so ago....Thanks to Kurt Q for the assist.

Now, the problem is sending IBM diagnostic data.   Again, I was able to do that 
direct from one of my tech lpars to testcase.ibm.com after opening firewall for 
outbound connections.   That also quit working, for the same reasons.   I'm 
playing around with the IBM PDUU (AMAPDUPL) utility, which has support for 
passing data through proxy server, but in general it seems pretty kludgy.

Is anyone aware of a way to use straight FTP, and provide the necessary client 
options, or ftp subcommands to pass the data through a proxy server?   I'd love 
to see something that one of you might have.

I'll send a virtual cold beverage to whomever can show me some samples...

Thanks in advance, Dave
