Hi Everyone, I'm looking for some advice on how best to set up users. We are using the SSH version (under INETD). Right now we have successfully set up JCL to copy files from z/OS to an OMVS directory and then using sftp, PUT it to another server. We have also successfully set up JCL to use sftp to GET a file from another server and then copy it to z/OS. We set up a large directory under a separate HFS file to hold the files. So as long as we "drive the train" there's no problem.
Now comes the decisions, we have a user (outside our agency) that also has outside users that will want to send their files via logon and sFTP to OMVS. (vs. our user logging on their system to GET the file) We need to set up some type of area that our users (user's) can each place their files but that can't be accessed by the other outside users. As a test we tried to create a file that has permissions where only the creating user can see the file. The real problem comes in here, when our user tries to get the file out of OMVS, they can't because they don't have permission. We thought of giving her access to each file via a group, but if OMVS is like LINUX, there is a limit as to how many groups you can be attached to (26 on LINUX). Since our user may have more than that, we're not sure how to handle this. Does anyone have any suggestions or way around this? (we are not strong in OMVS) Thanks in advance for you help!
