- Anonymous Kermit
-
-
- To retrieve UUPC/extended via Kermit, you must have a Kermit
-
- program which can issue the GET and FINISH commands to a Kermit
-
- server.
-
-
- 1. Set your Kermit to:
-
-
- Maximum packet size (optional, but important)
-
- Two windows (optional)
-
- Three byte checksum (optional)
-
- 1200 or 2400 baud
-
- No parity
-
- ^S/^Q flow control
-
-
- 2. Call 1-617-641-4817 between 9 AM and 5:30 PM weekdays, or
-
- any night between 11:30 PM and 6 AM (All times are Eastern).
-
- At all other times, the system will reject your call.
-
-
- 3. After connect, press ENTER and kewgate's "login:" prompt
-
- will appear. Enter the user id "anonymous"and press ENTER.
-
-
- 4. The "password:" prompt will appear. Enter the password,
-
- "ribbit", and press ENTER.
-
-
- Note:
- Note:
- Note: Both the user id and password are case sensitive, and
-
- you cannot backspace when typing them in. If you make
-
- an error then press ENTER until you get the "login:"
-
- prompt again and start over.
-
-
- 5. A short hello message will appear, and then MS-Kermit will
-
- await your command. Escape to your local command mode, and
-
- then issue a GET for one or more of the files listed below.
-
-
- Note:
- Note:
- Note: If your Kermit program cannot issue a directory
-
- command, retrieve the file INDEX for a current list of
-
- the available files. The INDEX lists files in both in
-
- the current directory and its subdirectories; Kermit,
-
- however, will not be able to retrieve files from the
-
- subdirectories. (Any files in subdirectories are
-
- accessible via anonymous UUCP, described below.)
-
-
- 6. When done, issue the FINISH command to shutdown the Kermit
-
- server. DO NOT just hang up your telephone, because then
-
- you will hang up kewgate until it times out, which is not
-
- critical but is unkind since now you know better.

-
-
-
- The files available on kewgate can also be downloaded via
-
- anonymous UUCP. To use anonymous UUCP, define entries for the
-
- system kewgate in your SYSTEMS file and PERMISSN file. The
-
- SYSTEMS file entry should define the phone number as 1-617-641-
-
- 4817, the user id as "nuucp", and the password as "nuucp".
-
- kewgate accepts anonymous UUCP phone calls between midnight and 5
-
- AM any night, and between 10 AM and 4 PM weekdays. All times are
-
- Eastern.
-
-
- Note:
- Note:
- Note: Beginning with release 1.11m of UUPC/extended, the
-
- sample systems file in the documentation archive
-
- includes a sample entry for kewgate.
-
-
- The files are located in the home directory for nuucp, so files
-
- should be requested via the UUCP command with the syntax
-
- ~nuucp/filename. For example, to retrieve the index for the
-
- archive to your local /tmp directory, issue the command:
-
-
- uucp kewgate!~nuucp/index /tmp/
-
-
- The UUCICO program must then be invoked to actually process the
-
- request. Users should retrieve the file index first, and then
-
- issue additional requests for the actual files wanted based on
-
- the current directory listing.
