Sounds like your linux machine is the client, and connecting to your z/OS
system running the IBM FTP server.
To use SFTP client on Linux, and connect to your z/OS machine running the SSH
daemon, yes, you'll need the SSHD task running.
//SSHD PROC
//SSHD
There are detailed instructions in the IBM Ported Tools User's Guide for
starting SSHD under a BPXBATCH started task.
BTW: The example that you have given doesn't jive - it doesn't execute the
shell script sshd.sh.

Ulrich,
Typically, the only type of files that sftp can transfer is HFS files.
Why do you want to avoid UNIX System Services? What do you want to use
sftp for?
The datasets are z/os (mvs)and I was trying to see if we could use sftp
without copying the data to HFS file(s).
Regards,
John

While we're casting wishful dreams around, anyone know of a z/OS that
can run without needing Unix System Services?
Just asking ...

Ulrich, John, Seymour and Jack,
Thanks for the replies. It looks like the least painful way is to
copy the data from mvs dataset(s) to hfs file(s) so that the
OpenSSH port client can read them. I was just hoping there
were no walls between Unix System Services and z/OS.
Regards,
John

I misstated. I meant reading an mvs dataset directly instead of having
to copy the data to hfs file. I hate to duplicate data and effort.
From my notes, one of these should work from Unix.

Munif,
I'm just curious, but can you elaborate on what you don't like
about sftp. Was it:
- lack of direct support for MVS datasets?
- batch invocation problems (BPXBATCH issues)?
- key authentication setup?
- logging?
- performance?
- other?
We are ourselves working on some solutions
