I need to connect to approximately 360 voice mail servers (running
UNIX System V/386 Release 3.0 80486) and transfer one small file (500
bytes) from each machine back to an AIX box for processing. I am
using an external NEC 9635 E modem to dial each of these servers. The
modem type I am using is "generic-high-speed".
The versions of C-Kermit being used are as follows:
C-Kermit 7.0.196, 1 Jan 2000, for IBM AIX 4.3
C-Kermit, 4C(058) 19 Mar 86, Unisys PulsePoint Communications
I am running into a few problems trying to get this to work.
1) While trying to transfer a file, I am getting timeout errors (e.g.
Last Error: Timeout 13 sec) on some boxes. This occurs even when I
attempt to manually login and transfer the files (with Kermit of
course).
2) On other boxes, this happens:
kermit -s SLBHCAXF.4AD
, Sz* @-#Y1~^
?Read file not open
(Then the script exits)
I can manually login (using Kermit) and issue the same command and the
file will transfer okay.
3) Finally, how do I force \ffiles to work on the remote system. I
need to be able to read the file names on the remote system but,
\ffiles is reading the file names on the local machine.
Thanks for your assistance.
P.S. This is my first Kermit project. I have purchased "Using
C-Kermit" to get me started.
