Hey,
How about a blast from the past.... good old kermit-32 for the
VAX..... I have resurrected a Vax 3100 from certain doom, but I cannot
discover a method to actually put any new software onto the system.
Kermit-32 was on the system in the form of a 1992 saveset, but it fails to
transfer files successfully with C-kermit 6.0. Here is the info:
System A: Intel Linux, internal modem, 38400 bps
C-kermit 6.0
System B: VaxStation 3100, external modem, no modem control on the serial
port, 9600 bps, alternate typeahead buffer enabled at 2000
chars, Kermit-32 w/ default settings. This system must use
xon-xoff flow, since the serial port is pretty crude.
Basically, I start the transfer and the local kermit-32 begins by creating
a file with the appropriate name, but fails about 10 seconds later with
the message "aborted". I have attempted to match the 80 char block size
and other parameters. What am I doing wrong? Any wisdom appreciated...
