If both the workstation and z/OS® UNIX have TCP/IP installed, you can use the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) facility of TCP/IP.

With the z/OS Communications Server installed on a remote z/OS system, you can ftp files into or from that system's file system.

An FTP client is not available for the shell and utilities. However, we have ported ncftp, an FTP client, and it is available for downloading at z/OS UNIX System Services Tools and Toys Web page. You can use it to ftp files into or from a local z/OS UNIX file system.
