QUESTION POSED ON: 06 March 2008
I am using a Windows FTP server to pull data from an IFS directory. I understand how to FTP LIB/FILE/MBR, but how about an IFS object?

>
EXPERT RESPONSE
The key is using a naming format that maps to the IFS:

quote site namefmt 1

Then you can do directory manipulation as needed, for example:

Cd /tmp
Get something
