Hello all:
I have C-Kermit 5A(188) on two IBM RS/6000 running AIX 3.x
I have a modem on each of them, one configured to dial out (host
machine), and the other to receive calls (remote machine).
I need to automatically send a file over each night and was looking for
a script to ease the task.
When I do it manually, I start kermit on the host machine, dial using
atdt, log onto the remote machine, change to appropriate directory, start
kermit and set it to receive, break to host kermit and send file,
re-connect to remote kermit, quit and logout, break and quit from host
kermit.
I am sure there must be scripts to automatically specify a phone number,
user name and password, remote directory, and local file name for doing
the transfer. I would appreciate any help with such a script. If need
be, I am willing to download a new version of kermit to facilitate this.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Nilesh L. Jain
