I'm having a little trouble getting stuff downloaded. The host machine I'm using is a UNIX machine receiving notes. The destination is a remote (very remote -- long distance phone call) Macintosh. Very often I get errors when trying to download BinHex files. The files are fine on the UNIX side, but they sometimes lose bits across the phone line. And if I'm downloading large packages, it'll take a while to try again! Does anyone have a better method? Such as a protocol that can be run from both ends to assure reasonably accurate file transfer? (Does anyone have ftp ported to the Mac?) papillo the frustrated Bob Ellison, HP Fort Collins
