Short answer: no. Long answer: you confused a couple of things. There is a client program with Samba that will do FTP like functions. The mount command requires smbfs, which has not been ported to z/OS. In fact smbfs has a kernel module that would be very hard to port to z/OS.

I know they have an SMB server over there (DFS SMB Administration SC24-5918-07) but I was looking for client support so from z/OS USS a command like "mount -t smbfs ... " or "mount -t cifs ..." It looks like I need an updated mount command binary that supports smbfs or cifs . Has anyone tried this or know of an smb client mount for z/OS ?
