The user's guide for openSSH states,
"sftp is an interactive file transfer program similar to ftp which performs
all operations over an encrypted ssh transport. It may also use many
features of ssh, such as public key authentication and compression. sftp
connects and logs into the specified host and then enters an interactive
command mode."
For those who use sftp on zOS, do you enter this interactive mode using the
uss shell? I haven't made much progress trying to get an interactive
session under the uss shell, and wanted to make sure this is the way that
it's supposed to be done. Or is otelnet the only way to establish the
interactive mode?
Thanks,

I'm not sure what is meant by "interactive mode".
You must have ssh up and working. You do not really ssh to the z/OS
host, you actually must have a sftp client and you "sftp" to z/OS.
Under the covers this does create a ssh session to Unix System Services.
Depending on your requirments we found that ftps (FTP SSL'ed) was easier
to implment and use. One big advantage of FTP SSL is that it is full
real ftp and so you can ftp to/from MVS data sents. ssh FTP only allows
you to ftp files in HFS or ZFS systems.
