Be sure to also read up on the "SET PROMPT"
Hein.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
Or "mput".
> Be sure to also read up on the "SET PROMPT"
FTP> set prompt
%CLI-W-IVKEYW, unrecognized keyword - check validity and spelling
Well, "prompt":
FTP> prompt
Interactive mode off.
FTP> prompt
Interactive mode on.
The help in the FTP client program would not
win many awards (from me) for quality or
utility.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
> card.
I got so excited about "SET PROMPT" that I
forgot that we really don't know how you're
trying to do this. "FTP /INPUT"? If so,
then you might do better (or more easily)
with "COPY /FTP". As usual, many things are
possible.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
$ COPY /FTP /ASCII this*.txt host"user pass"::
and see how far you get with the Windows ftp server.
You may need to tweak some logical names on OpenVMS as the Windows ftp tools can be incompatible with ftp on OpenVMS.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
Copy/ftp help only indicates the receiving host as being VMS. I need to go to a windows share. Failed anyway
$ copy/ftp/assci/ *.txt windowshostIP "username password"
%DCL-I-IGNQUAL, qualifiers appearing before this item were ignored
\FTP\

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
Probably COPY, or maybe a substring.
$ SHOW SYMBOL COPY
If so...
$ DELETE /SYMBOL [/GLOBAL] COPY
That DELETE command can fail for the same reason that the COPY command is probably failing here; because somebody has established a DELETE symbol.
Setting up DCL symbols that exactly match DCL commands is generally not recommended for just this reason.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
There are several issues with your attempt:
$ copy/ftp/assci/ *.txt windowshostIP "username password"
%DCL-I-IGNQUAL, qualifiers appearing before this item were ignored
\FTP\
First problem. You have a symbol "COPY" which defines qualifiers. The -I- (Informational) message is telling you they are ignored. This may or may not matter. Syntactically, the /FTP qualifier is required to be first. Try:
$ COPYX/FTP
the trailing X will override your symbol definition.
Second problem, /assci is misspelled. It should be /ASCII. I'm a bit surprised this error didn't generate a warning message like:
%DCL-W-IVQUAL, unrecognized qualifier - check validity, spelling, and placement
\ASSCI\
third problem, there's a trailing "/" on the command line. This should also have generated a warning message:
%DCL-W-IVQUAL, unrecognized qualifier - check validity, spelling, and placement
\*\
(because spaces between the "/" and the qualifier name are allowed, the command is parsed assuming the "*" is the qualifier).
fourth problem, the syntax for the target file specification is incorrect. It should be:
$ COPY/FTP/ASCII *.TXT node"user password"::"remote filespec"
For example - this is a cut & paste of an actual transfer from an OpenVMS V8.3-1H1 system to a windows server:
$ copyx/ftp/ascii/log send*.txt 10.2.21.133"anonymous junk"::"/~support/vmsxfer/"
%TCPIP-S-FTP_COPIED, DISK$USERS:[GILLINGS]SEND_SEMF.TXT;2 copied to 10.2.21.133"anonymous password"::"/~support/vmsxfer/send_semf.txt" (2809 bytes)
%TCPIP-S-FTP_COPIED, DISK$USERS:[GILLINGS]SEND_SMS.TXT;5 copied to 10.2.21.133"anonymous password"::"/~support/vmsxfer/send_sms.txt" (137427 bytes)
This is a "put" from OpenVMS to windows. Reverse the file specifications for a get.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
COPY /FTP also allows symbol substitution and other DCL programming techniques, which the FTP utility does not; to get around this, you'll have to write and @-invoke runt files with the FTP utility to perform various of these operations.
Whether COPY /FTP works with the ftp server within the Microsoft Windows Server platform, I don't know. Windows client and Windows server are not in regular use here.

Re: FTP OpenVMS7.3-2 to Windows Server
$ SHOW SYMBOL C*
Is there any COPY, COP*, CO*, or C* that does a COPY with some qualifiers?
And for good measure
$ SHOW NETWORK
