To ensure that the desired name is assigned, you should specifically state the name
as follows:
GET PROFILE.EXEC EXEC.PROFILE
In this example, member EXEC of remote file PROFILE is copied to your local system
as member PROFILE of local file EXEC.
File Structure and Path Name
File system structure and file path name specifications differ from one system to
another. For example, the AS/400 QSYS.LIB file system using NAMEFMT 0 has the
format:
Libname/Filename.Mbrname
and using NAMEFMT 1 has the format:
/QSYS.LIB/Libname.LIB/Filename.FILE/Mbrname.MBR
and UNIX-based systems allow specifications such as:
/etc/hosts
/usr/jack/test.c
/usr/*
Not all systems use the same keyboards or character sets. This can cause difficulty
when specifying path names. For example, some systems use the [ character and
the ] character in the path name to indicate the directory portion of a file name. If
you are using an IBM 52xx style keyboard or an IBM Personal Computer emulating
a 52xx, these characters are displayed as a ↑ character and as a .. character. You
also cannot type the [ character and the ] character on your keyboard. Instead, you
must type the < character and the > character.
Specifying Mapping Tables
For FTP client, the ASCII mapping tables are specified in the FTP command. For
FTP server this is done in the Change FTP Attributes (CHGFTPA) command. To
specify the FTP client mapping tables:
1. Enter the command FTP.
2. Press PF4. The Start TCP/IP FTP display is shown.
3. Press F10. The prompts for outgoing and incoming ASCII/EBCDIC tables are
displayed.
