It appears that on one of my z/OS 2.4 systems I don't have this ssh issue but on another I do.  The difference is that one has a /etc/ssh/zos_ssh_config file and the one that fails does not.  Updating the /etc/ssh/zos_ssh_config file thus fixed the problem:

Interesting. I have had difficulties before due to EBCDIC-ASCII conversions with z/OS ssh.

According to the documentation ChannelConvert exec is required for scp. If I remember correctly scp doesn't work for binary files.


It really bums me out that scp doesn't work for binary files. It's such a useful utility and I got burned once uploading a jar file. Having to fire up sftp or write sftp scripts is annoying.



I am a bit surprised it is required for git. I would have expected that git would need a binary connection, without EBDCIC-ASCII conversion. If conversion is being performed I would be worried whether the data transfer was reliable, even if it appeared to be working.
