I am not certain if this answers your question, but I have used SAMBA to
"share" data between z/OS and Open Systems. Other than a few quirks, it works
fine. That being said, SAMBA has not done any further development since release 1.9.18,
or something like that. WHy should they...? After all, the mainframe is going away, is
it not?
Samba is alternative to DF/SMB or NFS. HFT is rather alternative to ftp.
Quite interesting one, especially in the old days before OSA-Express
'was born'. Some interesting features are:
- ability ot use ESCON as media (rather obsoleted by OSA-Ex)
- usage of Hitachi HMDE aka Rapid Exchange - sharing volumes between
distributed systems and z/OS.
BTW: DF/SMB is free (included in z/OS price) and supported, while Samba
is not.
