To: Charles Chang, HP Response Center *3/15/98*
Good news! The PATCH (FTPFD06) you sent me 2/23/97 to correct the
problem with the MPE/ix 5.5 EXP3 & EXP-4 FTP enhancement "FTPEDR3"
worked.
Recall that the EXP3/4 "FTPEDR3" caused our FTP "GET" of a file from a
Win/NT SERVER to fail with the message "Error 13 Access Denied". Mark
Bixby discovered that the GET was changed to do an internal "RNFR", which
Win/NT can't handle (I guess - I never really understood it).
I ran a "GET" test after loading Patch FTPFD06 with "debug", and here is the
successful stream:
: RUN FTP.ARPA.SYS

FYI, this is what the "bad" FTP GET did before patch FTPFD06A:
ftp> get weekpay.txt week48;rec=-84,,f,ascii
---> RNFR weekpay.txt
550 weekpay.txt: Access is denied.
Data Transfer Request Failed. (FTPERR 13)
ftp> close
My thanks to Charles Chang at HP for sticking with this until we got
a solution. I believe that the FTPFD06a patch he sent me is a BETA,
but that it will be quickly released to everyone. Also, thanks to Mark
Bixby for his assistance.
