I have tried to use crtl-\ then b for the BREAK key and to connect to the
mainframe.This BREAK command has no effect.However I cannot even enter the
command like dial vtam for starters. Is there anyway that I can get the
fullscreen tn3270 server or work around with the linemode connection??


Someone told me that there was a way to transfer files over c-kermit  and
that's how it was done in 1993. I have no control over the kermit software on
the machines running solaris so I can't have the machines upgraded at this
time. How was file transfer done with c-kermit prior to version 7.0??? I have
C-Kermit 5A(190).
And how were people back then able to log into the machine or most importantly
navigate through the mainframe connection without using tn3270 terminal
emulation programs??

Thank You
Chris
