That was exactly what it was!  My Linux sysprog had a cron job kicking
off every 5 minutes to make sure the z/VM FTP servers were available,
and the job would close the connection before we completed writing the
banner.

Thanks for the suggestion on where to look Mark, much appreciated.  :)

Is there some system monitoring package running somewhere in your
network that connects every 5 minutes to see if your FTP server is
working?
