This Secure FTP on MPE/iX refers to a command file SFTPPUT.

I have attached a copy of this file, it's the same file which was on Jazz.

#
# This script transfers, via FTP/iX, "localfiles" from the host MPE system to
# the "remotesystem". Depending on the "encrypt" parameter and the type of
# file (needs to be ASCII) the file(s) may be encrypted, via the POSIX crypt
# utility, before it is transferred. If the remote system is an MPE system a
# job will be streamed, via the 'site stream' FTP command, which automatically
# decrypts the file. If the remote system is not an MPE system then the key,
# assuming the file is encrypted, is displayed to $stdlist for use to manually
# decrypt the file via POSIX crypt. To force this script to evaluate the
# remote system type enter "*" as the value of 'remoteSysT'.
#
# FTP PASSIVE mode is used to increase the chances of being able to connect
# through client firewalls.
#
# Parameters are defined in the HELP section at the end of this script.
# An important note on crypt and IO redirection via the C library is at the end

echo !_ftp_me transfers one or more files, via FTP/iX, to the specified remote
echo system. Most commonly the file(s) will be encrypted prior to being
echo transferred using the POSIX 'crypt' utility.
echo
echo Usage:
echo !_ftp_me fileset, remoteSystem, remoteUser, remoteDir,
echo encrypt, remoteSysType, remSysHasCrypt
echo where:
echo 'fileset' (required) a single file or wildcarded fileset which can
echo supplied in MPE or POSIX syntax. Eg. F@, ./f#, /ACCT/dir/f2
echo
echo 'remotesystem' (required) the name or IP address of the system where the
echo file is being transferred. The remote system can be all flavors of
echo Unix, Windows or MPE, as long as the remote system can decrypt
echo encrypted files via the POSIX crypt utility. The decryption is done
echo automatically for MPE systems; whereas, non-MPE systems will need
echo to run the crypt utility using the key which is displayed to
echo $stdlist.
echo
echo 'remoteuser" - (required) the user name which FTP will use to connect to
echo the remote system. The syntax is: "username[:password]" or
echo "username[/password]". To suppress password prompting the username
echo should terminate with a ":" or "/", meaning a null password, eg.
echo 'foo:'. For MPE remote systems the username field consists of
echo "user.account". If passwords are embedded in MPE user names the
echo format is: "user/upass.acct/apass" or "user.acct:upass,apass". If all
echo passwords are omitted the user may be prompted for the passwords.
echo The expected user response for MPE passwords is: "userpass,acctpass".
echo NOTE: the comma form of an MPE password causes quotes to be required
echo for this parameter so that it is treated as a single token.
echo
echo 'remotedir' - (optional) the name of the directory (or group.account) on
echo the remote system where the file will be sent. Syntax: "/dir",
echo "./dir" "../dir", "~user", "group.acct", or "group". If omitted the
echo remote user's home directory is assumed.
echo
echo 'encrypt' - (optional) TRUE (default) means to encrypt text files. FALSE
echo means no encryption. However, even if 'encrypt' is TRUE, only non-
echo empty ASCII files will be encrypted.
echo
echo 'remoteSysT' - (optional) "MPE/iX", default, means the remote system is
echo known to be an MPE system. "Unix" means the remote system is known to
echo be a Unix system. '*' means the remote system type will be determined
echo by this script, which is extra overhead. If the file is encrypted and
echo the remote system is MPE system then a job will be streamed on the
echo remote system to decrypt the file and do some minor cleanup.
echo
echo 'remSysHasCrypt' - (optional) only applies when the remote system is MPE.
echo "Y" (default) indicates that the remote system already has the crypt
echo utility, and thus it does not need to be FTP'd across the wire. "N"
echo means the remote MPE system does not have Crypt, in which case, a
echo non-PH version is FTP'd to the remote system, executed, and then
echo removed. If the remote system is not MPE this parameter is ignored.
echo
return
else
# Invalid entry point -- assume extra parm error...

################ Version History and Notes ####################
Notes on crypt: crypt requires PH capability to load thus the group and
account containing crypt must have PH -- it doesn't seem to matter if the
user has PH or not. However, crypt does not NEED PH in order to run
properly, it was just linked with PH to make life interesting... Thus, crypt
is copied locally, PH is removed, and this copy is sent to the remote
system.
Note on IO redirection: Crypt also as some strangeness around IO redirection.
It appears that a redirected filename cannot contain a leading "./" or "/"
when running crypt directly from the CI via an info= string. This may be an
artifact of the C library as other programs in hpbin.sys have similar
behavior. One solution is to run the shell with an input file which contains
the crypt command. In this case the filename can be absolute pathnames.
Another idea is to run the shell from the CI with a "-c crypt <name1 >name2"
but if "name1" or "name2" are absolute pathnames we get the same IO
redirection mentioned in the 1st sentence above. The solution chosen saves a
process create (the shell) and uses the CI's IO redirection via file
equations which create bytestream files and allow absolute pathnames. Be
CAREFUL if you change this part of the script!
X.00 - Initial version based on scripts written by Murali. (JV)
X.01 - uncommented the !EOJ line in the job and some minor cleanup. (JV)
X.02 - some minor bug fixes based on testing in a "clean" group, improved
summary reporting, strip quotes from prompted passwords, detect FTP
error -66 indicating can't connect remote system. (JV)
X.03 - fix test for crypt failing in temp job stream. Place ".enc" suffix file
in /tmp/_PIN-filename.enc to avoid problems with longer filenames under
an MPE group. (JV)
X.04 - using PASSIVE ftp now to increase chances of transfer working across
client firewalls, display script version ID, some ftp connection error
fixes, changed previous versions to "X" since script is not ready for
customers yet, redirect ftp stdlist to a TEMP file for better error
messaging, which means no longer using /tmp/_PIN..., detect ftp xfer
errors by comparing ftpxferfiles with ftpreqfiles variables due to ftp
bug where >16 char filenames appear to be xfer'd to an MPE group (can't
due to fname length) but they aren't -- no ftp error reported in vars or
$stdlist. (JV) Note: this is not an ftp bug. It turns out that, even if
you ftp CD to a different location, when you PUT an absolute pathname
with no second name on the PUT line, FTP places the file in the location
defined by the full pathname-- ignoring the CD. This is how ftp works on
HP-UX too.
X.05 - allow any string beginning with "mpe" to indicate the remote sys is MPE,
replace frombyte with FCOPY to preserve source file attributes, created
a 'job' entry to improve readability and increase performance. (JV)
X.06 - don't call finfo to get 'recsize' twice, display encryption key for non-
MPE remote systems, redirect fcopy output to $null to make spoolfiles
less cluttered, detect bad remote dir and stop transfers, detects site
stream error, no longer use EXITONERR (in order for these errors to be
detectable), don't truncate ".enc" name for non-MPE remote systems. (JV)
X.07 - minor spelling and help text fixes. (JV)
X.08 - remotesysT now defaults to "mpe/ix", added new parm to indicate that
crypt exists on remote system, per BT queen djg. (JV)
