Now I have hit the problem I thought might be lurking. The module I fixed 
before with the POSIX(ON) pragma is the listener. It attaches a number of 
worker tasks it givesockets an incoming session to. When the worker does its 
takesocket it must then do a gsk_secure_socket_open() to start the SSL 
handshake. This failed with a EDC5167I so I added the POSIX(ON) pragma. 
Restarting, the STC immediately failed in a call to BPX1MSS, rc=156, rsn= 
0D070201, which means:

I take it you are attaching your subtasks using MVS services. That won't happen if you use pthreads.

JRAlreadySigSetUp: BPX1MSS found the process already set up for signals
Action: Only one task can be set up for signals at any one time.  Issue the
signal unset (BPX1MSD) service on the task that did the last setup and then
reissue this service.

So it seems I can only have POSIX(ON) in one TCB? That's a bit of a 
showstopper. :(

Thanks
Robin

Yup ...

Be aware that changing to POSIX(ON) will introduce other subtle changes in 
behavior. For example, fopen()'s decision on what is a legacy dataset and what 
is a UNIX file changes. I was surprised to see that DD:SYSPRINT was now the 
name of a new UNIX file and happily created it under /u/! Really.

Is this telling me SSL can only be used under USS?
Yes, but realize that USS is z/OS, and you can have a program that runs from conventional 
JCL and looks externally like it could have been written in 1970 that in fact "runs 
under USS."

Thanks. I had just spotted Charles's post back in 2012 with the same problem 
and used a pragma. Now the init function fails with 202 (KEYRING OPEN ERROR) 
but that looks like an admin problem. :)
