Hi all.
I successfully downloaded and compiled C-Kermit 8.0 beta 02 sources on a
Sun Sparc with Solaris 2.6.
I'm going to use it to automate FTP operations between two systems.
For what I'm using it, wermit works fine, except for a couple of things:
* I get a segmentation fault when using the show variables at the
\v(setlinemsg) line (wermit prints \v(setlinemsg) = Segmentation
fault (core dumped). Anyway, It is a minor problem.
* during downloads, wermit tries to create temporary files in the
/var directory, resulting in 'Permission denied' errors. I used a
quick and dirty workaroung, modifying /var permissions, but I
cannot use this trick in my production environment. I tried to use
both TMP and TEMP env vars, but with no results. So I'd like to fix
the problem by modifying the source code and making wermit use /tmp
instead of /var. Can I modify the source files, and where should I
look into?
TIA
