Hello all,
I have a question that is driving us crazy and causing terrible
support issues. I'd appreciate knowing if anyone has or knows of a
solution or where to find one.
In the past, we have had MS-Kermit running in server mode where
clients dial in and deposit files. This MS-Kermit server has had its
file collision set to rename. When a file collision happens, numbers
are tacked onto the filename before the extension. Example:
Original file: test.fil
After collision: test01.fil
Now we have to use Kermit 95 on the server side so that we can talk to
higher com ports and use TAPI. When file collision is set to either
backup or rename, the behavior is different. Example:
Original file: test.fil
after collision: test.fil.~1~
How do I get Kermit 95 to behave during collisions like the original
MS-Kermit? I've read millions of pages of docs and tried everything
and still cannot find how to do it. The current behavior is breaking
our application.
****************REFERENCE MATERIAL************************
Here's some reference info:
Our prior system: mskermit 3.15 15 sept 97
the server mode is initialized by the following commands:
set com1 \x03F8 \4 FIFO-enabled
set port com1
set speed 57600
set rec pack 1000
set send pack 1000
set term color 0,1,37,44 ; set colours
set mode-line on
set input timeout proceed
set input echo on
disable all
enable delete
enable host
enable login
def errstp echo ERROR=> \%1\13,def \%1,pause 3,hangup,exit
log transaction modem.log
cd p:\
output AT\13
input 3 \10
if fail errstp { NO RESPONSE FROM MODEM }
pause 2
output ATZ\13
input 5 \10
if fail errstp { MODEM RESET FAILED }
pause 2
clear
output ATS0=1\13
input 3 \10
if fail errstp { FAILED TO SET MODEM AUTO ANSWER ON }
pause 2
server
output ATS0=0\13
pause 2
exit
And the new system:
Kermit 95 2.1.3 1 Jan 2003
Script to initialize the server instance:
set port com12
set speed 57600
set rec pack 1000
set send pack 1000
set input timeout proceed
set terminal newline-mode on
set input echo on
enable finish
enable send
enable delete
enable host
log transaction c:\comm\kermit\logs\kermit2a.log append
cd c:\landing\kermit2
set file type text
while true {
answer 0
if success {
server
hangup
}
}
The clients dialing are using various earlier versions of mskermit
such as mskermit 3.01 20 march 1990.
