Thanks. (I doubt the VMS ftp server would care about NAT, it's not something the system behind a NAT knows or should care about. It's the NAT router who have to do all the work...)
Aha. Interesting output. That was sortof what I had a vague memory remembering it looking like. Now I need to decide if I want to do it similar.
Do people think file protection (for example) is useful to see? What about owner? I certainly have the information available, but I have not displayed it so far.

The MultiNet FTP Server moves files between similarly capable FTP Clients and keeps the File Attributes consistent while copying data (i.e. You can simply ftp RMS Indexed files between VMS systems and the results will be immediately usable).
I know I read some manual about the DEC TCPIP package ftp server and client also managing this. It would, in fact, be nice to be compatible with that. However, atleast when storing or retreiving files from Unix systems, what DEC did is that they actually transfer two files. One with the data, and a separate one with the file metadata. Ugly, I think, and I would like to try and avoid that.
But that is a client only thing, as far as I can see. Anyone know how VMS does it if talking to another VMS system?
I suspect I might have a hard time if they do it by detecting that the remote server is a VMS system, since I will not lie about that. :-)

If you could do it in a snap, that would be nice.

I can foward a port readily.

Unix is not that meaningful, and besides, I have plenty to test against. VMS is much closer to RSX, and as such, can provide some more interesting ideas.

Absolutely Paul :-)
If I had any previous experience with that kind of coding I would at least gave a look. Seriously, it's not a one man job, right?
Anyway , it was a nice idea..
So if there's a spare decbrouter 90 around I'm willing to try that.

Which kind of kills the experiment, right? :(

Pretty much. It would be possible to port the code back to that version, but it would be a fair amount of work and not something I d be interested in. I prefer Python 3 for new projects for a number of reasons; some of those affect pydecnet significantly.
I suppose you could see what s involved in building Python 3.3 on VMS? :-)
