Hi Srini Rao,
The FTP setup is done in the System Configuration in Rich Client. Process Server Administrator >> Configuration >> System Configuration >> {configuration set} >> File Transfer Tab. You can also get to this by going directly to PfiFTPConnection business class.
Within IPA, you then select the configuration set to use.
Good Luck

What about the source file for the FTP node? I have setup my FTP and can successfully connect. But, when trying to use the FTP node in the flow, it is still failing. I suspect because I don't know how to reference my file I need to transfer.
Any clues?

Jeremy -
Did you reference the configuration set name in the node that you used in Process Server Administrator >> Configuration >> System Configuration >> {configuration set} >> File Transfer Tab when setting up your connection? What is the exact error returned? Is it a failure to connect or a failure to find the file. Do you have the source/destination check boxes flagged correctly?

For the configuration set: That's part of what I don't understand. Do I need to reference it on the source, destination, or both? The source file is local to the IPA server. In fact, it is created in the previous step.
For the file name in the source, I am manually inputting the file name.
I made sure to reference my FTP configuration set in the Destination file section.
The error is very long, lots of java connect stuff. The first line says the connection timed out.
Here's the full error:

Well, this is embarrassing. After posting that and reviewing everything for the 100th time, I found a typo in my file name I was trying to send that I had in my source file section of the FTP node. Now, I'm getting a new error:
Source error - Source file(s)/folder(s) do not exist
So, I don't think I fully understand how to get my file name correct. I'm hard-coding the file name based on what I am saving the file as from the previous node. I assumed the FTP node is looking in the same directory as that previous node, but I don't know how to check.

If you leave the Remote flag unchecked on the source, it should pick up the file from the Landmark server. The configuration needs to be set on the destination and the Remote flag checked for outgoing FTP.
The source file name has to include the path to where the file was written.

Third time seems to have fixed the typo's and I'm back to the not-very-helpful message. Here's the error related to the FTP node:

OK, all. I worked with someone and isolated the issue to being my FTP server. It had to do with is using passive mode, but the system not having the range of ports the FTP server was attempting to use open on the firewall.
So, even though the FTP ports were open, the passive mode ports were not, so I could connect, but not list files, transfer, etc...
Opened up the FTP passive mode ports and it all works perfectly now!
Thanks, everyone.
