File transfer using FTP
If your PC is connected directly to the ethernet and you are logged in
to a host via TCP/IP (Alt-S shows TCP at the left of the status line)
you can transfer files using FTP. Otherwise you'll have to use Kermit.
* The command ftp host starts an ftp session
Use Alt-H to send your PC's host IP address
* You may need to give a PC username and password when prompted.
* ftp commands include:
get f.g moves file f.g from PC to Unix
put x.y moves file x.y from Unix to PC
mput a.b moves all files which match a.b from Unix to PC
e.g. mput *.dat would transfer all .DAT files.
type binary use this before transferring PC binary files,
e.g. .EXE, .ARC, .ZIP or .ZOO files.
user uuu will prompt you for a PC username and password
quit (or bye) exit from ftp back to Unix
` -------
nt commands -- these may be entered at the nt> prompt
STart xxx open a new session to service xxx
SHow sessions list currently open sessions (and their session numbers)
Next return to next open session
PRevious return to previous open session
Disconnect s disconnect session number s
Quit close all sessions, exit nt and return to DOS
PUsh push to DOS, use 'exit' command to return to nt
SEt AUTO-Wrap start new line after reaching right-hand edge of screen
SEt Kb-status display keyboard shidt state at lower right of screen
SEt Display tell nt your PC's screen type (HERCULES,CGS,EGA,etc)
SEt POrt ppp specify nt's connection type (TCP, LAT or COM)
SEt Speed bbb set speed for COM port (2400,4800,9600,etc)
SEt PArity ppp set parity for COM port (ODD,EVEN,NONE)
The complete list of nt commands is documented in the file 'nt.doc'
` -------
File transfer using Kermit
Kermit allows you to transfer files from any open session.
Start Kermit on the host system by entering 'kermit' as a command.
When you get a Kermit prompt, enter 'server' to put Kermit into
server mode. Temporarily disconnect the session by pressing Alt-C;
this should return you to the nt prompt.
local cwd d:\xxx tells nt to move files from/to the d:\xxx directory
get *.dat moves all the .dat files from host to PC
put project.* moves all the project. files from PC to host
finish tells the host that you have finished with Kermit
Reconnect to your host session by enetering nt's 'Connect' command.
NOTE: If you started nt using the Computer Centre's Menu system,
e.g. by typing UNIX as a command, your session may be terminated
when you press Alt-C. To prevent this you will have to start
nt directly, by entering 'nt' as a DOS command.
