Hello -
My question is whether kermit scripts could handle the following scenario.
I've done a few simple scripts but this would entail dialing up into a
network, connecting with one user/password for Unix network, and then
ftp'ing to a Windows machine as another user/password.
My end user is a retail store, "the client", and is running SCO Unix. It
uses a kermit script to dialup into a "private" network ( ie: the corporate
network) at the end of the day. It connects to the corporate network with
its corporate userid & password.
Upon connection, it then ftps a file to an NT./XP Windows box hanging off
of the network. The ftp connection on the Windows box will be a different
userid & password then the Unix login. ( I'm developing software for this
NT machine to process this end of the day file from the retail client.)
1) Can I script connection with 1 login userid & then FTP to a machine as
another userid?
2) The other wrinkle is that the client does not have a 'proper' IP
address. Most likely it will be 192.168.1.1 - the IP address handed to the
machine from the router. Will this at all prevent the machine from doing
an FTP to the Windows box? I would think it would need a valid IP address
to do an FTP session.
Thanks,
