This one goes back to October, sorry... Very busy here!
: I need to connect to approximately 360 voice mail servers (running
: UNIX System V/386 Release 3.0 80486) and transfer one small file (500
: bytes) from each machine back to an AIX box for processing. I am
: using an external NEC 9635 E modem to dial each of these servers. The
: modem type I am using is "generic-high-speed".
:
: The versions of C-Kermit being used are as follows:
:
: C-Kermit 7.0.196, 1 Jan 2000, for IBM AIX 4.3
: C-Kermit, 4C(058) 19 Mar 86, Unisys PulsePoint Communications
:
: I am running into a few problems trying to get this to work.
:
: 1) While trying to transfer a file, I am getting timeout errors (e.g.
: Last Error: Timeout 13 sec) on some boxes. This occurs even when I
: attempt to manually login and transfer the files (with Kermit of
: course).
:
The logs you sent show that C-Kermit is sending even parity. Is this
appropriate in the failing cases?
The packet log shows that the remote Kermit (the unknown PulsePoint one)
doesn't like I-packets. If you upgrade your C-Kermit version 7.0 to
C-Kermit 8.0, you can tell it to:
set send i-packets off
But in any case, your packet log shows that the remote (PulsePoint) Kermit
doesn't receive even one packet it understands, so my guess is that even
parity is not appropriate in this case.
