There are no publicly/commercially available implementations of SSH (inbo und or outbound) for VM/CMS. I have been asking for a long time and the most polite answer I get is to
use a linux virtual machine as a communications intermediary. I have also gotten answers like VM doesn't need SSH because it is just a host for the real work in linux. When I asked the people who do have a commercial implementation for z/OS if/when they would have any kind of a VM/CMS implementation, they said it wasn't planned at all. /Tom Kern On Wed, 17 Dec 2008 09:32:17 -0500, Michael Coffin <[email protected] om> wrote: >Hi Folks, > >I know IBM's TCPIP does not support SSH or SSH based SFTP, but does >anybody know of any third party products that provide SSH and Secure FTP >over SSH to VM/CMS environments?
