Write to IFS

Hi,

We have a requirement to transfer information to and from an IBM ISeries machine. At present, out current process receives XML files into a WatchFolder via FTP. A Programme running on the ISeries box is running on a scheduled basis and picks files up from the IFS and copies them via FTP to the LIveCycle ES Server)

I am looking at the easiest way to send XML Files back to the IFS but the Standard Foundation utilities (i.e. Write XML) do not allow files to be written to a different file server.

Is there any other standard way of doing thi, without writing WebServices or FTP Jobs to move files. I just want to save files from the process, directly to a different server to LiveCycle (and be able to specify the required authentication to access the UNC path to the location)

Thanks

James
