Hello all :

	I have been using NCSA Telnet 2.3 quite happily at work. This is
a super program that does a real good VT100 emulation for our Pyramid UNIX 
systems. It gives you multiple sessions & windows. It also enables us to do 
very fast and easy uploads / downloads to and from the Macs. This is done 
via the FTP capability within NCSA Telnet ...

	My question is this - 

I've been using Microphone 1.5 at home to dial-in to various bulletin boards. 
I also use it to dial into the UNIX system at work. I get reasonable VT100
emulation but have been somewhat dissapointed with the ability of Microphone
1.5 to operate as seamlessly with UNIX as does NCSA Telnet. 

Short of simple text cut & paste; how do I move files up / down from my Mac 
at home to UNIX at work ? Microphone 1.5 does not even support Kermit, it 
only provides Macbinary / Xmodem. Is there another telecomm. program for the 
MAC that can provide file-transfer between an at home Mac attached to a UNIX
system over a 2400 baud dial-up modem ?

Please send all replies and suggestions via E-mail direct and I will post
to this group if there is enough interest. 

- Thanks much.
