EBCDIC <--> ASCII conversion

We are communicating between Sun 3 (with SunOS 4.0.3) and an
IBM Mainframe (don't know the model, we're not IBM jocks)
via TCP/IP.  Our question, is there any program in Netland
that converts back and forth between EBCDIC and ASCII
(preferrably in C, but we will take any example)?

If you have some knowledge about the conversion process, such
as the bit/byte ordering of an IBM vs. a Sun, any comments
would be very helpful.

Thanks,
