Unfortunately all of the Kermit servers are no longer maintained by the
Kermit Project. Instead they are now maintained by the Columbia
University AcIS Unix Systems Group. This means that no special daemons
are installed on the machines. This is one of the prices that had to be
paid by the community when the Kermit Project was forced to lay off
myself and Max Evarts due to ever decreasing sales of new Kermit 95
licenses.
No longer does Columbia University host an Internet Kermit Service
daemon supporting all of the security protocols implemented within
C-Kermit.
No longer does Columbia University host an FTP Service which provides
for private anonymous connections via the use of AUTH TLS protocol.
Why are sales of Kermit 95 descreasing to unheard of levels? I hope it
is not the quality of the product. :)
Could it be the economy?
Could it be the policies of the current United States President?
Could it be the inability to find "Kermit 95" listed on Google when
searching for "terminal emulator", "file transfer", "telnet", "ssh",
"vt320", "ftp", and any of the other thousand terms which are included
in the web pages for Kermit 95 and C-Kermit? (Of course, if you add
"kermit" to the search you will find us.)
I don't know. But boy could I use a shot of tequila right about now.
I have been told that if every Kermit 95 user was to link to the Kermit
95 page from their web page that Google would list us.
Back to the question at hand. You need a public server that supports
FTP AUTH TLS that works. Try Peter Runestig's public ftp server at
ftp://ftp.runestig.com/
on it you can find the source code to patched versions of popular FTP
servers to add support for AUTH TLS.
Enjoy :)
