Hi, my last question for today is about Kermit on VMS. Last
night I tried to get CMUIP ("OpenCMU" :-) onto my VAX so
I could finally get access to faster file transfer. But the
old frogs on both sides didn't want to play nice. After
having transferred 99% of the data, they would seem to get
into a fight over the very last packet. Ultimately the
server (on VAX) would abort with retry counter expired. Kermit
on FreeBSD was nice to give me all sorts of tweaks on the
settings but nothing helped. Why the last block? If I were
on UNIX I would have just send one more block and then stripped
that off again, but on VMS I'm so blind.
What happens without this last block is that LZDCMP.EXE will
say there's a problem with the archive and never really
extract anything useful.
How can I make kermit behave?
And, will CMUIP066 even run on VMS 7.2 (or so)?
thanks
-Gunther
