asking my questions in a wrong place, that's becaz I could'nt find any

have to
ask my questions some where else. Thanks
This group is primarily interested in running Linux on (IBM) mainframes.
Stick around, it's educational!
If you get the bug and want to run Linux on a mainframe, and can't get
the approval, then you can get Hercules (see google) and run your own
virtual mainframe on your pc.
I'm a linux users since 2001 and have to use my faivorite linux distro on
Desktop and connect with that to our OS390 & ZOS host. I use x3270 emulator
to connect to our OS390. do u know any other emulator ? does IBM have any
emulator for connection from linux desktop to mainframe ?
Linux includes several 3270 (and the AS equivalent) terminal emulators.
Look for a program called x3270. On my system I have these:
x3270
x3270-text
x3270-x11
I have a very serious problem with FTP from linux to OS390 too.
I'm trying to FTP files from Mainframe to Linux OS (get - ascii). When I
get
files from Mainframe to Linux it puts an extra character at the end of each
line. The Character's hex is: x'0D'
Any help is appreciated.
That's the OS/2 & Windows text format. You should have the dos2unix
program to tidy these.
