Well, then the only thing I can recommend is that you use IND$FILE as
the file transfer protocol. Use it to move the file to some intermediary
machine which can support both Kermit and IND$FILE. An OS/2 box with
Communication Manager/2 and C-Kermit for OS/2 would do.
You should then be able to send a request to a C-Kermit Server on the OS/2
machine to get a file from the AS/400. This would be in the form of a
REXX command. After the download to OS/2, you would then perform a GET
on the intermediary file.
You can talk to me in private for more details if you want to pursue
this avenue.
Of course, if there was a programmer available who had access to a AS/400
that was willing to help us in the port of C-Kermit to that platform,
well we would be very appreciative. :-)
