Barry,

I didn't see a response to your query. I know Randy Medd lurks on this list
and is much better qualified to answer than I, you do need a response.

This happens when the remote tries to start the NETXFER.NETWORK,TELAMON
process on the host and fails. If you have moved it, or if it is configured
to be somewhere else (in the remote NETWORK session) you will get this
message. I will take it that all the all other functionality works fine.

I don't have a Telamon engine handy and don't have the manuals, that is from
a previous life. I do remember you can set a variable to name the NETXFER
program file location (something like SET NETXFERNAME 'netxfer.pub.sys').

Sorry to be sketchy on the details, but if you have the manuals you should
be able to verify this one.

Hope this helps!

     We are an Amisys client and HBOC is trying to download a few files to
     us but they are having problems.  They can sign in and connect to our
     machine but when they try to do the transfer they get the following
     error:

     "Unable to initiate the remote FTP process".

     From what I understand they are using NETXFER from TELAMON to do this
     transfer.  In addition, I do have the FTPMON job running (I thought
     that was the problem at first).

     If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated.

     BTW, We are running a 959/400 and MPE 5.0.

     Thanks In Advance,
