I found your posting on Google just now; it never made it to the
Columbia news server. This is the second time something like this has
happened recently.
If you are posting to the Kermit newsgroup to get tech support -- which
is fine -- and you don't receive an answer within a day or two, please
send us mail at kermit-support@columbia.edu, because apparently some news
postings are not getting through.
: I need to transfer files from a process(scada) machine to a NT server with

: This should go fully automaticly.

: Currently the process machine is transfering data to a VAX/VMS machine with
: Kermit installed and that works fine.
:
So Kermit 95 on Windows is to replace C-Kermit on the VAX?
: I installed Kermit 95 and open up a vt100 terminal session with
: auto-download on. However when the remote site send its dat i only get a
: "KERMIT SERVER" message.
:
Where do you see this message? In Kermit 95's Terminal screen? Or in its
Command screen?
What is supposed to make the process machine start sending? Did you give it
a command? It sounds like maybe you gave it a command to put it in server
mode rather than a command to make it send a file?
: The auto download won't work. When i connect a pc
: on the remote site and to kermit transfer to the server it is working. (the
: connection is just a direct serial connection)
:
: When I get the "KERMIT SERVER"message I can start a transfer by hitting
: [ESC] and [enter]. Then the file will be downloaded.
:
I have no idea what this means. The Esc-Enter sequence is meaningless to
Kermit 95. This suggests that Kermit is in Terminal mode, and the Esc-Enter
sequence was needed by the process machine.
: What i want is to get an online server which is listening to the Comport and
: go automaticly in receive mode as soon data comes in. After receiving is
: should go back to listening mode.
:
: Does anybody knows a script for it which works with KERMIT 95.
:
Normally you should be able to do this simply by putting K95 in terminal
mode. As soon as the device starts to send a file, K95 receives it
automatically, and then re-enters terminal mode. But you say this is not
happening. It's not clear from your posting what is happening instead.
If K95 is popping back to its Command screen and printing "KERMIT SERVER",
that means the process machine is not sending a file, but is either asking
K95 to send a file, or doing something else to put it in server mode.
Try this: Tell K95 to "log packets" before making the connection. Then
follow your scenario and send the packet log to kermit-support@columbia.edu
and we'll take it from there.
