To those of you who helped me with this problem earlier: thank you.
After a bout of illness, I resumed working on our transfer and
eventually -- with the help of the sysadmin at the server site -- got it
working.
Morals of the story:
1) Google is your friend, but he can be a confusing friend.
I simplyhave a habit of putting SYSPRINT into just about everthing. If you
want to quibble about such things, be my guest.

You are correct. I misspoke about the sshd running. Our developers didn't
want to change their JCL. We're actually running lftp under System SSL for
both telnet and sftp. I even showed them your dspipes tool and they wouldn't
budge. St. Charles, MO - I'm a Lindenwood alum.
OMVS is not unix. ssh as provided by IBM Ported tools is still ssh (open
source) for unix. OMVS 'prohibits' ssh because of this in addition to the fact
that straight ssh/sftp does not have a facility to work with MVS data set
structure. IBM has been asked to 'fix' this multiple times. IMO

Also, z/OS UNIX System Service is also UNIX.
It was the second OS to get the UNIX95 brand.
HP/UX was the first.
This was over 10 years ago.
z/OS USS IS UNIX.

o What use is SYSPRINT in an IKJEFT01 step?
Perhaps not needed in this case, but in general it saves having to
allocate and free SYSPRINT every time you want to run a utility.

To execute sftp on z/OS using USS, you will need to install IBM Ported Tools.
This is a no cost feature available on the IBM website

Betsy ,
You don't need to run the sshd daemon to use the sftp client from z/OS.
Also, even though OpenSSH is open source, it is licensed under a BSD
license.
IBM is free to modify it as they wish (which they have) and not redistribute
their patches.

IBM's port of ssh has code that detects an OMVS environment and explicitly
prohibits execution. Same thing for the sftp command, as it uses 'ssh'
under the covers.

Remember sftp is not equal to ftpssl.
Sorry; I ass.u.med the objective was only to accomplish an encrypted

specifically as a hard
