  14. In article <slrnfihor6.5v2.fdc@panix2.panix.com>, Frank Da Cruz says...
  15. >: With that knowledge I run 'put XXXXXX.YYYYYY.D071029.A1' in K95,
  16. >: but I still get this error:
  17. >: Invalid data set name "XXXXXX_YYYYYY_D071029.A1". Use MVS Dsname
  18. >: conventions.
  19.  
  20. >: Using this last method works with MS ftp.exe in Windows, but not with K95.
  21.  
  22. >: Why does K95 insist on changing the filename?
  23.  
  24. > Because on many operating systems, filenames containing multiple
  25. > dots (periods) are illegal.
  26.  
  27. > To get around this use:
  28.  
  29. > ftp put /filenames:literal D123.XXXXXX.YYYYYY.20071029.1

  31. > or:
  32.  
  33. > ftp mput /filenames:literal <wildcard>
