Yes, HP is working on the transfer of PRIV files with the FTP/iX
product, but no promises yet on a delivery date.

One concern to be aware of is: FTP like STORE/RESTORE treat a database
as a unrelated group of PRIV files.  DBSTORE treats a database as a
related (database) set of files.  So when using FTP or STORE/RESTORE
you are responsible to assure NO errors are seen in the transfer of
any of the PRIV files.  You are responsible that "ALL" files are
always treated as a unit (database).

Hope this helps.
