You know, that's a real good thought. Unfortunately, I have zero experience 
with ssh and sftp and so that would be a whole new can of worms to take on.

But your post triggered a related thought: "can the new user access z/OS legacy 
data sets with FTP?" So after dinner last night I went and checked. And the 
answer is ...

The problem has mysteriously cleared itself. Yes, both UNIX files and legacy 
data sets work. I changed nothing. I am happy of course but even more mystified.

My *guess* is that something (TCPIP? PAGENT???) was caching the lack of 
permission to EZB.INITSTACK.*.TCPIP, and the cache entry expired. While trying 
to shoot the problem earlier I had bounced FTP but not TCPIP (a little tricky 
to do from a TN3270 terminal!) and not PAGENT (no TLS in the picture). 

Thanks all. Sorry for the disturbance to the Force.
Charles
