Subject:    [HPADM] File Transfer from AS400 to HP-UX with compression and encryption

Would someone be willing to let me know what they are doing to optimize file
transfer from AS400 to HP-UX (or even Windows)?

 

Also I'd like to know what compression and/or encryption techniques might be
available for this.

 

We're currently doing FTP from AS400 which is taking about 5 hours so they'd
like to speed this up.  I've already verified there is an AS400 version of
gzip (www.gzip.org <http://www.gzip.org/> ). There is apparently also a
commercial product call RevZIP from Seasoft (www.seasoft.com/rev-zip.asp
<http://www.seasoft.com/rev-zip.asp> ).   

 

The gzip site says there is no encryption available for gzip so one would
need to use something like pgp but I didn't see a version of that for AS400.

 

The archives had a few tidbits about FTP from AS400 but none seemed to
address it in detail.

 

TIA
