- File transfer protocol selection
-
- RBBS-PC allows you to select a default file transfer protocol. This
- protocol will be used for all file uploads and downloads, unless you
- specify a DIFFERENT protocol along with your list of files.
-
- Here are some tips to guide your selection:
-
- 1. You may want not to have a default transfer protocol. If you select
- None as your default protocol, RBBS-PC will prompt you with the entire
- list of protocols each time.
-
- 2. Whichever protocol you select here, you also should tell your comm
- program to use the same protocol. This is VERY important! If your
- comm program supports Zmodem, your SysOp suggests that protocol as
- being the fastest and most reliable.
-
- 3. No matter what you decide, you can still override the default protocol
- by including the letter of your choice along with the name of the file
- you wish to download (e.g. "D FILE1.ZIP Z" will download FILE1.ZIP
- with Zmodem protocol, regardless of your default choice).
