A quick look at apps/s_client.c in the 1.0.1j sources suggests that it does 
EBCDIC-ASCII translation if it was compiled with CHARSET_EBCDIC.

What version are you using? Was it built with CHARSET_EBCDIC defined?

Subject: [openssl-users] Using s_client under z/OS installation

I am trying to use the s_client feature to retrieve certificates from other 
SMPT servers. The s_client connection works to other z/OS systems, but fails to 
any ASCII based mail server. Tracing the connections show that the EHLO goes 
out in EBCDIC and the responding server claims unknown command. This make sense 
on the surface.

Is there a way to force the outbound to ASCII data stream (supported by z/OS on 
other connections), or is there a way to install OPENSSL using ASCII under the 
z/OS OMVS umbrella?
