- Subject: Kermit / 3174
- Lines: 30
-
- We've have Kermit running on PC's, emulating VT100's, going thru 7171's into
- our mainframe, doing 3270 emulation and file transfer via VM Kermit. Have
- been doing this for several years with no difficulty. One of our sites just
- installed a 3174 with AEA adapters. This replaces some old communications
- gear that allowed pc users to connect to our 7171's.
-
- I've tried IBM's FTTERM thru this 3174 and file transfer works fine using
- IND$FILE. But, using PC kermit talking to VM kermit, file transfer does not
- work. I've been thru about every 3174 manual that I can find and IBM does
- mention that the IND$FILE type file transfer is supported but none other.
- It looks as if transparency support is available in the 3174 and IBM sort of
- hints that user supported code could be written that could use transparency
- to do file transfer.
-
- My questions. Has anyone else been down this path? Have you got file transfer
- to work with Kermit going thru a 3174? If so, what settings did you change
- in the 3174 to get it to work?
-
- Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
-
- TIA.
