An FTP connection (there may be several at one time) communicates between one client, which initiates the transaction, and one server, which provides the requeted "service".
Routinely, SMP/E is (or uses) the client; I'd expect the HMC to be the server in the case you envision. Client on MF; server on HMC. Client and/or server may communicate via the TCP/IP started task. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
