Hi

Whenever I try to FTP a file from mainframes, it has an additional line after the last line. Guess this line has the file terminator.

Is there any way to FTP without that additional line? Any option we can specify in JCL???

Please help....

Hello,

Create a small file with sort, gener, or tso that has 5 records
Code:
1
2
3
4
5


Ftp that 5 record file from the mainframe and see if the extra line is added. If you have 2 mainframes with FTP, try sending it from one to the other and see if the extra "record" is added.

You might also talk with your network support people and see if they are aware of some feature that adds a "cr/lf" or something else to indicate eof.

FTP does not normally add things to the transmission.
