Sounds like your linux machine is the client, and connecting to your z/OS system running the IBM FTP server.
To use SFTP client on Linux, and connect to your z/OS machine running the SSH daemon, yes, you'll need the SSHD task running. //SSHD PROC //SSHD EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,REGION=0M,TIME=NOLIMIT, // PARM='SH sshd' //STDOUT DD SYSOUT=* //STDERR DD SYSOUT=* And we have these files in /etc/ssh/ sshd.sh #!/bin/sh nohup /usr/sbin/sshd -f /etc/ssh/sshd_config & sleep 1 sshd_config (lots of comments removed) Protocol 2 HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key SyslogFacility DAEMON LogLevel DEBUG3 Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server and then we've generated the private and public keys in /etc/ssh too, using the ssh-keygen command. The IBM Ported Tools manuals should clarify everything for you though.
