curl 7.14.2

[Rakesh Kapoor]

I just installed curl 7.14.2 on model 9000/800/rp4440 running HP-UX 11.11 to upload files to mainframe (os/390). Mainframe only accepts ftps using SSL. Curl was the only client under HP Unix that supported "ftps" protocol on port # 21. When I issue the command ( curl csdcp.xx.xx.xx:21)
to upload the file to mainframe, I get this error...........
220-DRFTPD1 IBM FTP CS V1R4 at csdcp.state.co.us, 17:40:01 on 2006-01-09.
220 Connection will close if idle for more than 300 minutes.
500 unknown command GET
and hangs up here...
I am supposed to get login id and password prompt as per IBM mainframe systems programmer and the session aborts after that.

Any suggestions?
Is there any other ftps package that uses SSL and can be used to upload files to the mainframe?


Thanks,

RK

Shalom Rakesh,

Wrong tool for the job. You need an SSL enabled ftp client to upload to the IBM server.

I don't know what that is, but I'd suggest the Internet Express pack from http://software.hp.com or something from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/

might do the job.

I already have checked both the links and search brought up 0 results. I do need FTPS client for the unix platform. All the windows ftps client like smartftp, surge ssl_ftp etc.. work fine. There are some out there for linux and solaris ( tumbleweeds securetransport clients, lftp etc..) but do not work under HP-UX. Curl is the only ftps client (ftp over SSL) that was available on the opensource site for HP-UX.
Thanks for the recommendations but have tried them all before.
