Through the zdsfs file system, the whole DASDs are accessible to Linux, but the access is not controlled by z/OS auditing mechanisms. To avoid security problems, you might want to dedicate the z/OS DASDs only for providing data for Linux. Also, consider NFS. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
