    01. z/OS Explorer: MODIFY commands are rejected if the RSE
        Daemon started task name is 8 characters.
    02. When uploading an MVS text file, the flags indicating
        text/binary can be set in multiple messages sent from client
        to host. In some cases, incorrect processing may cause a
        carriage return in an MVS text file to be converted to a
        substitution character.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 01. Sample RSE Daemon started task JCL member FEKRSED in
        SFEKSAMP has been updated with a note in the comments
        describing the maximum of seven characters for the RSED STC
        name.
    02. The host module is updated to look at the text/binary flag
        only in the first uploading message to detect the
        text/binary mode for the uploading file correctly.
