Further response. In the NFS Server configuration attributes file you set the binary/text options and the CRLF options. You will need to review your current configuration to see you these are set, but you should be able to get exactly what you were looking for.

The problem is two-fold: 1) The file needs to be converted to ASCII. I can use "iconv" to solve the EBCDIC to ASCII translation, but I was hoping that someone might know how to do this via NFS. 2) The MVS format is FB, LRECL=80 so there is no line feed character and the whole file ends up on a single line. Other than writing a script to parse the file, is there a way to have NFS recognize it's attributes?
