Linux uses ASCII, regardless of the hardware platform. To transfer Linux
files to z/OS Unix files you must tell FTP to translate from ASCII to
EBCDIC and to translate ASCII LF to EBCDIC NL.

To transfer to classic MVS files you need to tell FTP to interpret the LF
as a request to start a new record. As with the other case, you need ASCII
to EBCDIC translation.
