Phil,  as I replied previously OpenSSL is NOT provided with CommServer.  That 
was my mistake - I confused it with OpenSSH that is provided by CommServer, not 
OpenSSL.

No, I'm not sure. *I* didn't get anything: I found that file on our system. And 
note that it's from Hallowe'en 2013, so is presumably a tad out of date! I was 
just hoping to be able to do some basic commands.

What version is provided with CommServer? For that matter, CommServer is always 
there if you have TCP/IP, isn't it? So we should have that version, I'd think. 
Or is it just a library, not the executable?

As I think I said on another thread, this is a former IBM Dallas 2.4 system 
that was cloned and then data sets copied over to a new ADCD 3.1 system. Many a 
slip 'twixt cup and lip and all that; I hadn't expected to have any version 
until the CommServer comment came along.

Phil,

I know this is probably a dumb question, but are you sure you got the right 
openssl program and not a version compiled for an x86 or some other processor 
type?

Nobody? Very few hits on the web for EDC5130I. 
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/devops-deploy/8.0.1?topic=platform-troubleshooting-problems-zos
 talks about BPX_SHAREAS=YES and points to 
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.3.0?topic=shell-setting-bpx-shareas-bpx-spawn-script
 which talks about setting _BPX_SHAREAS (note additional leading underscore). I 
tried all four values: _BPX_SHAREAS and BPX_SHAREAS as YES and NO and got the 
same error every time.

Any guesses what this means:

/u/vendor/openssl7/openssl-1.0.1e/apps > ./openssl
bash: ./openssl: cannot execute binary file: EDC5130I Exec format error.

That's the only copy of an OpenSSL executable I can find on our 3.1 system (via 
find / -type f -name openssl)
