Re: Starting a putty client to my i.

I think you are on V7.1. If so there is an option on the STRTCPSVR command to start the ssh serve, been there since V6.1.
No need for the SBMJOB old way of doing it.

Try STRTCPSVR *SSHD.

BTW if you have V5R4 IBM cerated a STRENDSSHD command

and search for "STRENDSSHD"

is Linoma's stuff. However I am trying to open a putty client not to our

sftp server but that i itself. netstat *ifc shows a plethora of IP

addresses.

Is there a way to configure the ssh daemon used by the above SBMJOB to

link to a specific address and not to all?

Is this what I have to get working to allow me to use my putty client and

bypass "Network error: Connection refused"?
