The Submit  FTP  Command command  submits a  single command  to run  on
another System i  that is connected via FTP.   It could be another LPAR
partition   on  the  same   physical  hardware.     Like  SBMNETJOB  or
SBMRMTCMD, SBMFTPCMD provides  a simple method  of submitting a job  to
another system, but uses the more popular FTP protocol.

A typical command would be:

             SBMFTPCMD   RMTSYS(rrr) RMTUSER(uuu) RMTPWD(ppp) +
                           CMD(ccc)

The  user, password,  and the  remote system  would be  described along
with the command to be run.

The RMTPWD value will not be described in the job log.

Some  FTP connections  may hang  if either  or both of  the user  ID or
password exceeds the maximum size supported by the FTP server.

SBMFTPCMD may only be run in an interactive environment.

FTP Trouble shooting
--------------------

If SBMFTPCMD fails, check  the log by  using DSPPFM QTEMP/FTPOUT.   You
must  have a  valid user  profile and  password on  the remote  system.
You can check this by trying to signon to the remote system.

The following are some unusual errors that may occur:

  **   530.   The  job  description is  not valid  or the  user  is not
       authorized to one of the libraries in the job description.

SBMFTPCMD escape messages you can monitor for
---------------------------------------------

None.  Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.
