Although I don't have much experience with AS400 machines, I do have quite
a bit of experience with FTP. The first thing I would do is to try this by
hand and see what you can see. Open a command prompt on your BizTalk
machine, ftp to your AS400 and log in as the user. If you can cd to the
BIZTALK directory, then the problem is probably something configured
incorrectly on the BizTalk server. If you cannot cd to that directory, or
you can't see that directory, then you know that the problem is on the
AS400 side. It's important to find out what the problem is before taking
steps to solve it.
