Yet another option is to establish an IPSec connection between machines and then use NFS sharing across that link. That would be the most secure option (among those mentioned) and eliminate the security risks associated with using PCs in the loop. The NFS can be bidirectional, with both z/OSes running both NFS client and server.
Both IPSec and NFS are supported in all the z/OS releases mentioned. - - - - - Timothy Sipples Resident Enterprise Architect Value Creation & Complex Deals Team IBM Growth Markets (Based in Singapore) E-Mail: timothy.sipp...@us.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
