C-Kermit 8.0 will be released within a few days, barring unforeseen
difficulties:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck80.html
I still have not heard from anybody who has tried it on AIX 5.1. Many
people have said that there is no point trying it, because if it works
in AIX 4.3, it will work in 5.1. I am not so optimistic. Kermit touches
parts of the OS that few other applications applications touch, and in
the past, changes have been necessary for every AIX release. Could
somebody please download it, try building it ("make aix51"), and let me
know what happens? Alternatively, if I could have a guest ID on a
network accessible AIX 5.1 system, I'll do it myself.
Thanks!
