Rich, No my restore wouldn't work. I have a problem open with IBM on it. We use dfdss from mvs to b/u the files using cpvolume and admin. What happen with the help of a mutual aqutaince was find where the files had been moved and put them back. But I'm haveing this(ftp) problem and a problem with /var/log. There is a /var and a /log BUT no /var/log and yast is pretty upset about that. Anyway there is no ftp listening on the server. Could this be a problem with no /var/log?? Call me whne you get this I'd like to talk to you about something for a moment. thanks Larry

If you get connection refused from an FTP attempt, it is possible that the FTP daemon isn't start (or isn't even installed). From root, issue 'netstat -l' look for FTP as a listener. It shoud look like this: tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN On Wednesday 17 May 2006 8:31 am, LJ Mace wrote: > First we run linux under z/vm and we b/u the vols using dfdss from mvs. > The root vol is a full mdisk.
