Ah. I did my test from a Linux system to a z/OS ftp server. I just did the following from a z/OS client to the ftp server on the same z/OS system:
cd /home1000 EZA1701I >>> CWD /home1000 250 HFS directory /home1000 is the current working directory EZA1460I Command: cd tsh009 EZA1701I >>> CWD tsh009 250 HFS directory /home1000/tsh009 is the current working directory EZA1460I Command: mkdir a\ b EZA1542I Usage: MKDIR directory :(like local_mvs_directory: EZA1460I Command: pwd EZA1701I >>> PWD 257 "/home1000/tsh009" is the HFS working directory. EZA1460I Command: mkdir "a b" EZA1701I >>> MKD a b 257 "/home1000/tsh009/a b" created. EZA1460I Command: cd "a b" EZA1701I >>> CWD a b 250 HFS directory /home1000/tsh009/a b is the current working directory -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
