Tony, yes I missed the part of a z/os client, sorry for that. But it only makes sense, if both z/os are on different boxes or use external tcpip paths, otherwise since between tcpip and the calling application of the socket api its unencrypted anyway, it would be a waste of cpu cycles.

Denis, I don't think Windows is in this picture anywhere; certainly it was not mentioned until now. The OP spoke of a COBOL client program on z/OS talking to a platform-unspecified external server (presumably not under his control). AT-TLS on z/OS can provide the required client side protocol support for TLS. The OP said that the server program already supports TLS, so it's mostly a matter of getting the certificate stuff and the AT-TLS config right.
