Frank,
Thanks for the pointers. I have purchased your "Using C-Kermit" and
have found it an extremely useful and well written book.
Your item 38 in the Kermit FAQ has me somewhat confused. In
particular, choice 3 to "License modern versions .... from Omen" - do
you mean simply to download the lastest version on Omen's web site or
is there some other version that must be purchased? I have heard this
same thing from others as well from others. Some have recommended
crzsz (I did try this and did not have any success).
The above problem appears to have had nothing to do with Kermit and sz
- it was a basic scripting issue on Solaris. I say "appears" because
I did see something going out the modem as well as in the /tmp/szlog
but have not yet been able to contact the remote technical contact to
verify the condition of the file I send. The following redirection
metacharacters solved the above problem:
!sz -v file_to_send </dev/cua/b >/dev/cua/b 2>&1
