CA/UNIX does support bi-directional file transfers either using the caftp program or through APIs. The transfers MUST be initiated on the UNIX side. A data file transferred from UNIX to AS/400 will become a source physical file. If you want to convert the source physical file to a data file, you will need to write a program using the APIs. For more details, see “About Transferring Files” in the Client Access for UNIX User’s Guide.
