I am having trouble getting Kermit to transfer some files in binary
mode. Here is the setup:
I am transfering some EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) files FROM my home
Windows 2000 machine TO a Solaris 5.8 machine. The Windows machine is
running Kermit 95 2.1.3 while the Solaris machine is running C-Kermit
8.0.209.
I first connect to the Solaris machine using the ssh feature of Kermit
95. I start Kermit on the Solaris machine with the command "kermit
-ix" and escape back to the Kermit 95 prompt and type at the prompt
"SET FILE TYPE BINARY". I then type "send test.eps" and the file
"successfully" transfers but the transfer window always indicates
"File Type: TEXT (ascii => ascii)". I do not have a .kermrc in my home
directory on the Solaris side.
What do I have to do do force Kermit to send a file in binary mode?
Thank you.
