Most likely, I'd just use "cp" to copy the files that I needed to copy. If I wanted to copy __all__ of them, I'd use "pax". In either case, I'd be in a UNIX shell from TSO OMVS or ssh or telnet. Most likely TSO OMVS. In the following, assume that you are on the 1.11 system. The /etc from the 1.9 system is mounted on is in the "root" and the 1.9 "root" is mounted on /oldroot. So the 1.9 system's /etc would map to /oldroot/etc . I also assume you can "su" to root. su - #change to root user cd /oldroot/etc pax -rw -v -pe ssh /etc exit #from root exit #from UNIX shell Now, if you want, you could also use "plain" TSO/ISPF and ISHELL. On the first screen of ISHELL, on the upper right is "Setup". Place the cursor within the word and press enter. You'll get an ISPF dialog box with a bunch of options. Option 7 is "Enable superuser mode(SU)". Type in 7 and press enter. Your TSO session is now running as a super user. On the bottom left, you should now see "EUID=0". On the left in the middle, you can put in a UNIX path. Put in the path to the 1.9 ssh subdirectory: /oldroot/etc/ssh You now have a list of files that look a bit like what you see in option 3.4. For each file that you want to copy, one at a time, put a "c" in front of it and press ENTER. You'll get an ISPF dialog box. Use "1" for a "File..." copy and press ENTER. This brings up another ISPF dialog box where the destination is the same as the source. Remove the leading "/oldroot" so that you'd see something like: /etc/ssh/the.name.of.the.file.to.copy Press ENTER. Rinse, repeat as necessary. When you're finished, go back to the ISHELL main screen. Put the cursor on Setup again. Press ENTER. Select option 7 again to return to your normal UID in TSO. -- John McKown Maranatha! <>< ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
