You could write a VBscript that creates your FTP script. Store the password in a Win10 user or volatile environment variable. The VBscript could run the FTP script, then delete the script file, so there is no password kept on disk for more than the duration of the ftp.
I would also recommmend using FTPS with Curl. Set the password: set objShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" ) Set objSystemEnv = objShell.Environment( "VOLATILE" ) objSystemEnv( "ZZPASS" )=V_PW Retrieve the password: set objShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" ) Set objSystemEnv = objShell.Environment( "VOLATILE" ) V_PW = objSystemEnv( "ZZPASS" ) > Sent: Monday, June 04, 2018 at 9:47 AM > From: "Kevin Merkley" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: problem with FTP from Windows 10 to z/OS > > Thanks for the responses. > I did receive an explanation that OPTS UTF8 ON is not the problem.
