IBM has been threatening to disallow plain FTP for several years. We cannot use FTPS here because of an appliance (Bluecoat) that we rely on to punch through the internet firewall. Bluecoat does not understand FTPS syntax. Eventually IBM offered HTTPS as an FTP alternative, which we're fine with. PDUU allows a choice of FTP or HTTPS
However, we have not heard of a Monday (27 July?) deadline. Is it real? . .
