- Here's one for you all...
-
- I am trying to set up a way to transfer from the unclassified LAN at my
- workplace to the classified LAN. I am using a batch file, Procomm Plus with a
- direct connection to the serial port,and two fiber optic modems with only the
- transmit side on the unclass connected to the recieve side of the class. The
- only way I have been able to accomplish this is to zip the files, uuencode the
- zip file and transfer usin plain ASCII. This is fine, it works very well, but
- It takes about 4 hours to transmit 10 Meg.
-
- The problem with using something like Kermit or Zmodem is that the software
- wants to see some handshaking. Is there someone out there who knows of a
- binary protocol that does not require handshaking, or is there a way to turn
- it off on any others?
-
- Any and all assistance is appreciated.
