Jim, You can use the pax command to do the conversion on the USS side.

Specifically, I need to manually re-import the file system structure of a web site built on OS/390 Unix system services to which the developer destroyed his 'frontpage' source. The import website thing only follows links and he has some JavaScript built menus and crap, and cannot get the whole thing back properly. We want to re-deploy this to z/Linux (minor changes to scripts required) I had looked into having FTP recursively navigate a directory structure and re-created it on his desktop but I can't seem to see how to do that. So I was going to just tar the whole thing but the I realized the text based files will be EBCDIC, so that's kinda useless. What is the easiest way to bring this USS installed directory structure into windows so we can used the developer's favorite (gack) tool to redeploy this to z/Linux? |---------+----------------------------> | | "McKown, John" | | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]| | | insctr.com> | | | Sent by: Linux on| | | 390 Port | | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]| | | IST.EDU> | | | | | | | | | 11/06/2003 03:20 | | | PM | | | Please respond to| | | Linux on 390 Port| | | | |---------+----------------------------> >--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------| | | | To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | cc: | | Subject: Re: Brain fart - redirect stderr/std out to a file and NOT see an ything after a command is run | >--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------| James, That doesn't work. Why? First, the shell redirects STDERR to *the current STDOUT destination*, you then redirect STDOUT.
