Remote job entry (RJE) to the UTCS IBM mainframe is now possible. This allows UNIX users who may want to do data analysis on the mainframe to prepare their data files and programs (SAS, SPSS, FORTRAN et,c.) on UNIX and then send them to the IBM for execution. The output will be mailed back to the UNIX account where it can be viewed and/or edited and/or printed. Under normal circumstances, the user will not need to have an account on the UTCS system; usage will be billed to their UNIX account. However, no disk storage may be used on the mainframe, as we have no charge-back mechanism. Any files charged to our UTCS account will be removed *without* warning. If you are interested in this facility, ask Keith, Henry or myself for more information. -- David Trueman @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!david
