The NETRC data set provides you with an alternative to specifying your userid and password as FTP parameters when you want to FTP to a remote host.
To use the NETRC data set you need to activate the following DD statement in the JCL procedure for CA Spool:
//*-------------------------------------------------------------------* //* Common FTP, CA XCOM and Connect:Direct userid/password file * //*-------------------------------------------------------------------* //NETRC DD DISP=SHR,DSN=&PARMLIB(IQNETRC)
The supplied CBQ4PARM(IQNETRC) sample contains the following sample definitions:
* * Common FTP, CA XCOM and Connect:Direct userid/password file * machine ftp.com login userid1 password pass1 machine 111.222.33.44 login uesrid2 password pass2 machine XCOM.IPNAME.com login uesrid3 password pass3 machine XCOMLUx login uesrid4 password pass4 machine XCOMGROUPx login uesrid5 password pass5 machine ConnectDirect login uesrid6 password pass6
If no FTPUSER and FTPPASS parameters are specified on a FTP request, the remote FTP machine is looked up in the NETRC data set. If the machine is found, its password is used.
If the FTPUSER is specified without FTPPASS, the FTP machine and the FTPUSER is looked up in the NETRC data set. If the machine is found, its password is used.
If the NETRC data set is used, it must be secured against unauthorized read and write access.
