-
- The commands you mention are all a part of the kermit server package that is
- an extension to basic kermit protocol. The Windows 3.1 terminal does not
- support being or using a kermit server. All you can do is upload/download
- single files.
-
- To use kermit upload/download in the win terminal, set the binary transfer
- protocol to kermit.
-
- To upload from a Un*x box type the following on the Un*x machine:
-
- kermit -i -s <source filename>
-
- Then recieve the binary file in the windows terminal. The upload will
- terminate automatically when the file is uploaded.
-
- To download to a Un*x box, type the following on the Un*x machine:
-
- kermit -i -r <dest filename>
-
- Then send the binary file from the windows terminal. The download will
- terminate automatically when the file is downloaded.
-
- The -i option is for binary files like executables and archives. Leave
- the -i option off when transferring plain ASCII text.
-
- Hope this helps.
