The System i (formerly known as iSeries, AS/400, and Application System/400) is a computer platform produced by IBM. System i uses two different name formats (See Reference 1). By default format 1 is enabled. If the user/client sends a CWD command starting with a / the server automatically switches to format 2. To go back to format 1 you have to send a SITE NAMEFMT 1 manually or by using the custom commands in SmartFTP.

Starting with SmartFTP v2.0 Build 996 Patch 41 new custom commands have been added to change the "File Naming Format" easily. See Menu: Commands -> Custom Commands -> AS/400 (iSeries).
