1. The desktop computer should be a server, running the appropriate O/S with an active FTP daemon (usually the FTPD service). If the computer is NOT a server, then it will need to run a third-party FTP daemon. Either way, the computer should use a static TCP/IP address, or have a known domain name.

2. The running FTP task on the desktop server should have a userid, password, and a default directory location defined for your session to login to. Appropriate levels of security should be set for access rights (read, write, allocate) to the file system.

3. The network connection between the mainframe and the desktop computer must have access through any firewalls to Port 21. This should be verified first by your Network support group.

4. If these criteria are met, then your FTP process should not have any issues.
