OpenVMS no inbound ftp

[Dave Gudewicz]

I noticed that your TCP/IP services ECO level is 5. ECO 7 is the latest and can be found at:

And of course, that last reply should have read: "I could NOT run some commands because I do not have AUDIT.

Now your friend knows who to call - no good deed goes unpunished :-)

Perhaps you can redirect them here or find a local VMS system manager for the next time - luckily VMS systems rarely go wrong.
(I suspect in this case there will be more issues).

Roger,

I would agree that one should ensure that FTP services will survive a reboot.

Using the *_RUN.COM file will start the service, but it will not ensure that the service will start correctly at reboot. Only ensuring that the service is correctly enabled will do so.
