Or, if you need it now, get (free as in beer, zero cost) Dovetailed Technologies' sftp add-on. It not only allows accessing z/OS data sets (upload and download, binary or ascii), but can be used to submit jobs and retrieve sysout. Oh, and z/OS UNIX files too, of course.
http://dovetail.com/products/sftp.html <quote> Co:Z SFTP is a port of OpenSSH SFTP for z/OS which adds support for z/OS datasets, catalogs, spool files, SMF, etc. This product is designed to work with secure SSH connections provided by IBM Ported Tools for z/OS - OpenSSH. The rich set of z/OS features in Co:Z SFTP are implemented in such a way as to be completely accessible from OpenSSH or standard-compliant SFTP products on other platforms. Using Co:Z SFTP-server, systems with OpenSSH or another sftp compatible client may transfer files directly to z/OS datasets and control all aspects of dataset allocation, formats, and codepage conversion. Co:Z SFTP retains compatibility with OpenSSH sftp, supporting the binary transfer of z/OS UNIX files, but also supports codepage and line terminator conversion. Using Co:Z SFTP client, z/OS datasets and POSIX files can be transferred. The client may be used interactively or from a z/OS batch job (typically from within a Co:Z Batch job step). </quote> -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
