Then you need to tell the NFS server to enable translation, otherwise the NFS server is giving the bits to the Linux server exactly as they appear on the disk. As some else said, test it with 'cat' from Linux. If you're getting EBCDIC on the Linux system, then z/OS NFS isn't translating, and you know what to do. Scp and sftp (the entire Unix world, pretty much) defaults to transfer stuff as it is presented by the sending system to the receiving system, unless explicitly told to do something to it. If the sending system presents EBCDIC, you get EBCDIC. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
