Rob,

According to IBM Communication team lead, this is not IBM code, re-packaged code used as is.
All your solutions sound good, or use IBM's recommended method for checking.
What ever method is picked, it is still a revisit to every SFTP.

Open up a design change request to have IBM put that wording back in (or was there some other acceptable method than analyzing the wording?).
https://www-912.ibm.com/r_dir/ReqDesChange.nsf/Request_for_Design_Change?OpenForm
Mention that because they are using open source based stuff they are free to modify it at will.

Search for, and if not found, open up a new requirement at common.org to have IBM put the wording back in.

Find the source and modify it at your will.

Use Arpeggio's solution.

Use GoAnywhere by Linoma.

Roll your own using sockets and whatnot.

Rob,

Totally agree, but OpenSSH is part of LPP , 5733SC1 *INSTALLED OpenSSH,
OpenSSL, zlib, and maintained via SC1 PTFs.
What do you suggest?
What are the options, if any?

Which is unbelievably ludicrous!
"Open Source" doesn't mean it's free but you have to use it as it is. It
means source is provided, modify as you will.

Which may mean the buck get's passed on to you to modify the source...

David / Kirk,

You previously mentioned you were awaiting a fix for this.

< We would just ask you to hold off until we have a fix for this
available. We should have this fix soon and we will let customers know
once it's available. You can contact our support site for details.>

According to IBM, because this is open source, this is the way it is , no
changes in the works, not what I wanted to hear.
We have to revisit every SFTP process before applying SI55522

David / Kirk,

Here's IBM's recommendation for Logging Success or Failure in OpenSSH
Batch Mode File Transfers.

http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1018799

I tested this, works fine.
I tried coding for RC years ago, was not successful, I did not have the
specifics below..
I'm still waiting for an update from IBM, I don't want to revisit every
OpenSSH touch point.

QSH CMD(&CM3)
RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*COMP) RMV(*NO) MSGDTA(&MSGDTA) MSGID(&MSGID)
IF (&MSGID *EQ 'QSH0005') +
CHGVAR &RC %BIN(&MSGDTA)
IF (&RC *EQ 0) THEN(DO)
SNDMSG MSG('The file transfer completed successfully.')
TOUSR(user_profile)
ENDDO
IF (&RC *GE 1) THEN(DO)
SNDMSG MSG('The file transfer failed') TOUSR(user_profile)
ENDDO
ENDPGM

I applied SI55522 to a test LPAR.
Ran a SFTP test, test LPAR being the client.
The "Uploading" line no longer appears.
In order to check for successful transfers, I will need to 1)Turn debug
logging on
2) Add logic to the SFTP logging program to also check for "Transferred"

Any other thoughts???

Kirk,

I can clarify this for you as I work at Townsend Security. The email that
went out was not properly worded, the issue is not a problem with the
functionality of version 6.6p1 of OpenSSH, the issue is with how our own
application interacts with that version. There was a small change made
that causes our application to report errors for SSH sFTP transfers even
when they're successful. We do not want to discourage anyone from applying

PTF SI55522, or more appropriately PTF SI55602 which supersedes it. We
would just ask you to hold off until we have a fix for this available. We
should have this fix soon and we will let customers know once it's
available. You can contact our support site for details.



David
