I didn't give many details in my first posting so I thought I'd fix that in my
second plee for help! 

Well, I'm running FTP on a Sun 4/280-32R1 running SunOS 4.0.3. I open the
remote server. set the type to binary then execute a get or mget to retrieve
the file I want. I then exit ftp and download the file to my mac using
XMODEM 3.4 the command xmodem -sbyl foo.gif. The receiveing program was
either Microphone II or Versaterm 4.0 I've tried both!! Any Ideas??? Has
anyone actually done this? I was able to get the ones from SUMEX but I've been
trying to get the files on hubcap.clemson.edu and on uxe.cso.uiuc.edu!
The GIFs on SUMEX have been binhexed so they don't present
a problem. does FTP have a line length limit or perhaps a ascii char.
limitation of some form?
                                        Thanks in advance
