Peter,
we have several jobs using ftp. Works easy enough, provided you have
ftp, I think we paid for ours but maybe it comes with 5.0? Our jobs run
either a program wich ftps (via system()-calls) or they're MPEX-jobs
(doing %RUN FTP.ARPA.SYS ;Input="open..";Input="get..."), but its
basically nothing more than this:
!job ftp,user.acct
!ftp.arpa.sys
open remote_site
user remote_user_id remote_user_pass
get/put/whatever
quit
!eoj
 
hope this helps (if it's what you're asking for)
