>As the subject, would like to know if this is workable . - Setup FTP and allow the remote user to submit a job. The job can issue MVS commands directly thru JCL or via utility run from the JCL.
- The utility might be some home written program to issue MVS commands from within batch jobs, the TSO CONSOLE command or SDSF batch utility. All of these have differen security needs. - Setup either rsh or rexec daemons on z/OS and allow the remote user to send commands. Install the oeconsol utility and permit the user it. All of these require a TCP/IP connection into z/OS.
