Even though the password was specified in the jcl,it still doesn't login.I am trying to transfer the files from Mainframe to FTP server running Windows OS.

Hello,

Using that id and password, are you able to log on to that ftp server from a desktop pc? It sounds as though the id/pwd is not valid for that server?

Keep in mind that most Windows passwords are mixed case (not just upper-case as on the mainframe).

The 26530 indicates you cannot log in because of a password failure. Can you start on OMVS session and use FTP to log into the Windows server from it using the userabc/passwordnnn ? Note: just getting to the server from OMVS FTP means nothing; you get to the server in your batch job output. It is the signon that is in question.

Hello,

Possibly (as suggested earlier) the Win-based system has a mixed-case password and you are sending all upper case. . .
