From: dkcombs@panix.com (David Combs)
Subject: pbm downloading .gz from panix-shell to solaris
Date: 30 Oct 2000 15:56:03 -0500
Organization: PANIX -- Public Access Networks Corp.
Message-ID: <8tkn93$lqu$1@panix3.panix.com>
To: kermit.misc@columbia.edu
Until 31sep00, I was a Netcom shell customer, when
their shell service was murdered by their CEO.
I now use panix (in nyc).
At home I have a sparcstation 5, solaris 7.
Until the last few days, I have had good luck
downloading .gz-files:
(remote, ie panix): kermit -i -s foo.gz bar.gz ...
(At home, I run kermit too, to do the dialing,
make the connection, etc.)
But recently, the problem has been that about 1/3d the
way through a download, it starts generating errors --
the "errors" line in the display goes from 0 to 1 to
2 ... to 6 or so (incr is once every 5 seconds or so)
and I control-c the thing.
----
Flow control?
What I do know is that when I used to run emacs on
NETCOM, I could not use ^s for search -- I had to
do M-x enable-flow-control and then use some other
key-combination for fwd-search.
I don't know whether that was some preset config on
THEIR emacs init file, or whether I was actually using
xon/xoff (on netcom). Gone now, so can't find out.
However, on panix, control-s works just fine in
emacs.
----
I called panix, and they told me -- well, here are
my notes typed in from that phone call:
> send this string to modem each time I call panix:
> at&fs32=66<crlf>
> Which: sets us robotics to X2 mode instead of V.90
> because, ON PANIX, X2 works BETTER than V.90.
> (because xon xoff not effective above 2400).
> so set it to rts and cts (ie hardware flow control)
I looked at my 2ed C-kermit book, it showed various
ways to type in all of or parts of the modem init-string,
but did NOT show any way to ADD to the existing
init-string.
(SUGGESTION: NEEDED COMMAND!)

Am no kermit guru. Any suggestions?
I don't know how to do ANYTHING in kermit except
dial in, upload (-g), and download (-s).
THANKS!
