We got pulled into having to use PGP because of laws governing British Airways transmission of data (I think it was a British/UK/EU law or something to that effect). Because we need them more then they need us we're pretty much at a disadvantage... If we had to use PGP encryption for all our other FTP vendor data we'd be able to justify the additional enterprise PGP costs. But anyway, this is good info.... Thanks

Using an ssh key pair that was generated under my Linux/390 system, we have been able to use SCP to pull data from Linux into USS and then use the MV command to move it into a real MVS dataset. The SSH process handles the authorization and encrypted data transfer (even though we don't need the encryption between our MVS and Linux/390 systems running under zVM on the same box). We will be using SCP to pull files from another Agency and need the encryption for that dat transfer. Do you need to transfer the files securely or to encrypt the files for any/every use? /Thomas Kern /301-903-2211 > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Butler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 12:46 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: os390 Linux GnuPGP > > > We're in the process of setting up our file transfers with PGP > encryption.
