Something else to try

Post #125,186 by drewk 11/11/03 4:45:30 PM Reply	Something else to try [link\|http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/tn5250/asdbget/\|asdbget] A utility for retreiving AS/400 physical files (databases) from an AS/400 via FTP. Queries the AS/400 for the structure using an AS/400 FTP extensions and produces an ASCII, XML file which can be easily processed with a number of utilties. The project has been merged into tn5250. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.

Post #125,286 by mmoffitt 11/12/03 8:12:12 AM Reply	drewk, Please Read. I sent them a mail and a Tony Felice responded. He wants me to let him know who recommended them to me and I wanted to check with you before I passed your name out. If it's okay, I'll tell him. But, I don't know your full name. ;-) bcnu, Mikem Java, Junk. Both start with a "J", both have four letters. Coincidence? I think not.

So it shouldn't come as a complete shock that I'd still be pointing people to them. Besides, you had a question, I thought they could answer it. It would be pretty childish for me to not pass the info along just because they had to let me go when a project wrapped up. Speaking of which, were they nable to help? === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
Post #125,321 by mmoffitt 11/12/03 10:36:42 AM Reply	Not yet. But they're trying. The response so far was "I'll look into it. It shouldn't be too hard to port OpenSSH to OS/400." ;-) And, THANKS AGAIN! bcnu, Mikem Java, Junk. Both start with a "J", both have four letters. Coincidence? I think not.

I mean, if the OS/400 continues to "not play well with others" it would be a bad thing for the platform, imho. bcnu, Mikem Java, Junk. Both start with a "J", both have four letters. Coincidence?
