How about sshd for USS, IBM? There is a port; it's more than a little fragile, though. Back on the topic at hand, why not use something like site submit for incoming jobs, and LPR/LPD printing for output coming back? You can set up destinations via NPF (or it's successor) on zOS. Then

It will build, but I *strongly* recommend doing the ./configure somewhere else, specifying the USS platform as a command line option, and then transferring the resulting source to USS for compilation. There is a lot of munging that happens in the configure step that uses stuff that USS make

Neither FTP nor NJE are particularly secure, which wasn't a problem using NJE over dedicated SNA links, but that world is rapidly disappearing. It's zOS that should be trying to play nice now, and while they've made some progress, USS still seems to be far enough behind the curve to keep it
