Greetings - 

I've just installed your port of CVS onto our OS/390 box, but I can't 
figure out how to get at files which aren't covered under the HFS 
partitions.  (i.e. in our Development LPAR, we've several regions.  I'd 
like to get the source COBOL, copybook, and a couple of other PDS's out of 
that partition, and ship them over to our CVS repository).

So (and I realize these questions fall less under the topic of your CVS 
port, and more under how to administer OMVS) but I don't really know where 
to go from here, so:  Are there ways to access PDS's through an HFS path? 
Is the only way to access a PDS through FTP or IND$FILE transfers?

Thanks for reading this - I'm pretty facile in CVS once I can get the 
files to a *nix-style path, but the data is hidden where I can't really 
get at it.  I guess a best case scenario would be some type of access to 
the files packed into the PDS, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't exist.  : 
)

Sincerely,
Connor Smith
