Recently I tried to use the MS-Kermit terminal that I received from the
Computing Center of my college, to access and retrieve files from thier VM/XA
system. I am using MS-Kermit 3.01, and am having a rather difficult time.
I can ftp the files to the University Computer OK, (I think they make it ok),
however, when I try to send the files from the Univ. computer, to my system
(MSDOS) they are getting mangled somehow. That is, after I receive them on my
home system, and try to decompress them, they won't decompress.
Could someone tell me:
A) What I am doing wrong?
B) Where I can get a recent copy of MS-Kermit
C) If there is a way to tell the remote host that the file it
is sending is binary, and not text (This may be it!)
D) If someone could walk me through a complete session of sending
the files via Kermit...
