title: Connect to z/OS Mainframe with SFTP
body: <p>We have a IBM Host System Z sitting in our cellar. Now the issue is that i have no clue about Mainframes!!! (It's not USS btw.)</p>
  
  <p>The Problem: How can i transfer a file from the host system to a windows machine.</p>
  
  <p>Usually on UNIX systems i would just install and ssh daemon and connect to it via. a program called winscp. After that transfer the file in binary so that it does not convert something (Ultraedit and other Editors can handle this).</p>
  
  <p>With the host system it seems to be a bit difficult as the original format from IBM is EBCDIC and i have no idea if there is a state of the art SFTP server program for the host. Could anybody be so kind and enlighten me? From my current expirience with IT there must be a state of the art sftp connection to that system? I appreciate any help/hints/solutions.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you,
  O.S</p>
