Anything but this slow, unreliable KERMIT! I can't really help you out in your quest for something new, but don't be too harsh on Kermit. I expect that most of your performance problems have to do with the fact that your mainframe link is half-duplex (whether you are connected via NTO, Hydra, what-have-you). This means that sliding windows protocols can't work, whether it's Kermit's or somebody else's. I'm a satisfied user of John Chandler's TSO-Kermit. No, it's not a real barn-burner-performer, but it does get the job done. - David Andrews dandrews@bilver.oau.org
