Problems have been reported with downloading the MPI files from
Netscape Version 6.
In all cases the file transfer from the PC to OS/390 must specify
BINARY format. Do not specify ASCII, or any combination of line feed
(LF) and carriage return (CR). Be sure to pre-allocate the OS/390
dataset with the characteristics shown.
File Names, Usernames and Passwords
The IOF web site is hosted on a unix system that is case sensitive.
If you have trouble downloading or FTPing, be sure the case of
all file names, usernames and passwords is correct.
Formats
Be sure to specify BINARY format for all file transfers.
If you first download from the web site to a PC, this includes
file transfer from the PC to OS/390. The MPI files must be
transferred without introducing additional characters such as
line feed (LF) and carriage return (CR).
FTP Command

will be documented for each host. The basic requirements of

File Transfer from PC to OS/390
If your OS/390 system has FTP capability to the internet, it
is easier to FTP from the web site directly to OS/390. Otherwise,
you must FTP to a PC, and then file transfer or FTP from the PC
to OS/390. Many different methods exist to do this file transfer.
