Specifications concerning the remote system

All functions that access a remote system must identify the remote system and make the transfer admission known. The file structure ft_admission is used.
In Windows, the ft_admission structure is defined in the header file ...\openFT\include\ftapi.h.
In Unix systems, the ft_admission structure is defined in the header file /usr/include/ftapi.h.

ft_admission

The structure ft_admission is set up as follows:

struct ft_admission
{
   char  *remsys;         /* input */
   char  *remadmis;       /* input */
   char  *remaccount;     /* input */
   char  *rempasswd;      /* input */
};

The fields of the structure ft_admission have the following meaning.
remsys

Name of the partner system in the partner list or address of the partner system.The address of the partner system is specified in the following form:
[protocol://]host[:[port].[tsel].[ssel].[psel]]

protocol	Protocol stack via which the partner is addressed. Possible values: openft (openFT protocol), default value ftam (FTAM protocol) ftp (ftp protocol)
host	Internet host name, IP address or GLOBAL NAME from the TNS, mandatory parameter. Format of the IP addresses (example): %ip111.222.123.234 (IPv4) or %ip6[FEDC:BA98:7654:3210:FEDC:BA98:7654:3210] (IPv6) The square brackets [...] must be specified with IPv6.
port	Port number for TCP/IP connection, optional.
tsel	Transport selector (only openFT and FTAM protocol), optional.
ssel	Session selector for FTAM connection, optional.
psel	Presentation selector for FTAM connection, optional.

For further details on addressing partner systems see the online help system or the manual "openFT (Unix and Windows systems) - Command Interface".

remadmis

Either a login name or an FTAC transfer admission in the remote system.

remaccount

Account number in the remote system.

rempasswd

Password in the remote system.

Depending on the particular type of openFT partner system, the following entries are necessary:
BS2000 systems:

remadmis, if the remote system uses the FTAC transfer admission; otherwise: remadmis, remaccount and, if a password is assigned, rempasswd

Unix systems:

remadmis, if the remote system uses the FTAC transfer admission; otherwise: remadmis and, if a password is assigned, rempasswd

Windows systems:

remadmis, if the remote system uses the FTAC transfer admission; otherwise: remadmis, if a login name is assigned, and rempasswd, if a password is assigned

OS/390 and z/OS:

remadmis, remaccount and, if a password is assigned, rempasswd

With FTAM partner systems, for which no product of the openFT product range is in use:

remadmis, if an account number is assigned, remaccount and, if a password is assigned, rempasswd

For other partner systems:

Corresponding to the conventions of the particular partner system.

All fields not specified must contain the value NULL.
