Hello Kirk, I'll be interested in receiving more information on the webinar once its scheduled. Thanks Jay Ableidinger Sr Security Analyst FirstBank Data Corp [email protected] 303-235-1408 >>> Kirk Wolf <[email protected]> 3/31/2009 9:24 AM >>> Jim, The two primary non-proprietary protocols and IBM products are: - FTPS (TLS). This is supported by z/OS Communications Server. - SSH SFTP. This is supported by z/OS Ported Tools - OpenSSH. FTPS pros - Full dataset support by z/OS CS Generally, better native z/OS features than Ported Tools SSH FTPS cons - Uses multiple sockets which can be tricky wrt firewalls, NAT routers, etc Requires compatible FTPS server SFTP pros - Single socket connection, much more firewall friendly SSH/SFTP tends to be more widely available on partner *nix systems than FTPS SFTP cons - Ported Tools version of OpenSSH doesn't support MVS datasets, SMF, etc. Other options - - We offer a free extension to Ported Tools OpenSSH that adds MVS dataset support and SMF logging to SFTP. - We also offer a free proxy tool that can be used to tunnel regular FTP over an SSH connection. - SSH Communications offers their own completely separate SSH/SFP product ("Tectia").
