I love this one! <quote> Support for FTP access to UNIX-named pipes is planned for z/OS Communications Server V1.11. Both server and client support, in either read or write mode, is planned for the pipes (also known as first in, first out, or FIFO), and this support will be extended to prior z/OS releases via PTFs. </quote>
Unfortunately, this does not appear to allow for what I really want. To pipe the ftp to/from a UNIX command, ala: get remote.file |localcmd -with -parms or put |localcmd -with -parms remote.file -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
