Hi,
Is there an upper limit to the size of a file that Kermit (K95 running
on NT4.0) can transmit? Our application uses Kermit to transfer files
between two computers using TCP/IP over a dial-up PPP connection. We
are conducting stress tests of the application by sending very large
files (100+ MB) between the systems. We have noticed that the reception
of some files finishes even though the whole file has not been
completely sent. In one test, a 180 MB file was only received as a 112
MB file. Obviously, dial-up connections using such large files take a
long time. Could line noise, static, etc.. cause this to occur? Or is
there an internal limitation that we are runnng into?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
-Michael C. Smith-
