Hello development team!

I'm an IBM employee in Germany and I'm working in development
of the IBM System z mainframe operating system z/VSE.

http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zvse/

I'm currently investigating the possibilities of implementing
SSH/SCP/SFTP for VSE. My favorite scenario would be some kind of
a "proxy SSHD" running on Unix/Linux/Windows, forwarding commands
via IP to VSE, where an already existing server executes cmds
and sends the output back.

Via Google I found the MINA Apache project and already tried some
things:

- I downloaded the apache-sshd-0.5.0 package
- I got it to run in Eclipse, i.e. I can start the SSHD
  and open a command shell via PUTTY.
- I found the place in org.apache.sshd.server.shell.ProcessImpl.java
  where the native shell (cmd.exe) is started.
- There I added some few code lines to submit a command to VSE and get
  its output back
- My hope was that I can just replace the native methods with my code
  and use the existing streams to write/read to/from VSE, but I'm getting
  an IOException.

At this point I'm now completely lost.

My question is basically: what's the simplest way of using the MINA SSHD
as a proxy with the VSE operating system? The most elegant way of course
would be just adding my code optionally without changing your code.

But I even do not know whether MINA would be ok for my approach at all.

Would be great to hear your opinion!


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards
