FTP Server Wizard: Welcome

Welcome to the z/OS FTP server configuration wizard.

As you proceed through the wizard, you will use the "Next", "Back" and "Finish" buttons to proceed through a few basic panels where you will configure:

  1. The start procedure name of the FTP server. An FTP server start procedure will be created as a member of a partitioned data set extended (PDSE). The name of the PDSE is set in the Basic Settings task.
  2. The member name of the FTP server configuration file. An FTP configuration file will be created as a member of a partitioned data set extended (PDSE). The name of the PDSE is set in the Basic Settings task.
  3. The control connection port. The FTP server will listen for logins on this port.
  4. Settings for either the Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Kerberos protocols, if security is desired.
  5. Whether the FTP server initially logs in users to access the z/OS UNIX hierarchical file system or to access MVS data sets.
  6. Whether FTP server events should be logged using the SYSLOGD daemon.
