File transfer openFT for BS2000

The file transfer product openFT for BS2000 supports the transfer of POSIX files. Optional components are openFT-FTAM, to implement the FTAM functionality, openFT-AC, for the access control provided by the FTAC functionality, and if applicable openFTP, for the support of the FTP functionality.

The POSIX subsystem must be started, so that the POSIX functions of openFT can be used. POSPRRTS must also be started.

Specifying a POSIX file

A POSIX file must be specified with a special syntax in openFT commands. File names which begin with / or ./ are interpreted as fully or partially qualified POSIX file names. Files which do not begin with one of these characters are regarded as BS2000 files.

For more information, see the "openFT (UNIX/Windows)" [19]” manual.
