Summary: UUencode Mac files corrupt after Kermit transfer to VAX server
Keywords: C-Kermit 4E(072), VMS 5.0, uuencode, Mac, VAX
X-Newsreader: Trumpet for Windows [Version 1.0 Rev B]
Apparently-To: [e-mail]

Can anyone tell me whether running a more recent ver. of C-Kermit on a VAX
will eliminate corruption of uuencoded files that are transferred via Kermit
from Mac clients ? C-Kermit, 4E (072) is presently on the VAX server. The
VAX is running VMS 5.0. Only Mac uuencoded files show corruption - DOS/Windows
uuencoded and "Kermitted" files do not ? ? ? Two different Mac communication
programs (containing Kermit) result in the same corruption: Mac 320 and
VersaTerm Pro. The corruption consists of  truncation every 7-th line
- where full justification is required; indicating a buffer or packet size
limit when receiving from Mac-Kermits ? Thanks, any and all !
