Subject: C-Kermit SVR3/386 Binary Needed
Date: 10 Mar 2000 18:05:54 GMT
Organization: Columbia University
Message-ID: <8abdi2$j$[e-mail]>
To: [e-mail]


We have an urgent request for a C-Kermit binary (6.0 or 7.0) for Intel
i386 running AT&T UNIX System V R3.  The PCs in question don't have a C
compiler, so they can't build one themselves.

We have several C-Kermit 5A binaries that seemed to be likely candidates.
Of these, only the Interactive UNIX one (cku190.is5r3jc) worked.  But it
can't be used since Year-2000 readiness is required, which didn't happen
until C-Kermit 6.0 (1996).

The actual vendor and brand name of the UNIX OS is unknown but "uname -a"
gives:

  UNIX <systemname> 320.009 i386

and the console login banner says:

  Welcome to the AT&T 386 UNIX System

Does anybody have a PC with "vanilla" System V R3 or Interactive UNIX
SVR3 with a C compiler who can build a binary?  If so, please let me
know and I'll send instructions.

Thanks!
