Does anyone know of a version of Kermit for either the Zenith 150 micro or the Honeywell 6000 mainframe? Please mail replies directly to me. Walt (Lazear @ MITRE)

Although the kermit information in the article I am replying to is (as far as I know) correct, I find it easier to get kermit and kermit information via computer networks. I don't think there is currently a kermit version for the IBM System 38. There is an info-kermit mailing list, gatewayed onto usenet as mod.protocols.kermit. (formerly fa.info-kermit) This list anounces new versions, discusses bugs, protocol enhancements, etc. Subscription requests should go to info-kermit-request@cu20b.columbia.edu, submissions to info-kermit@cu20b.columbia.edu. Arpa: Anonymous ftp ker:aaread.me (I'm not sure of the name, but it starts with aa) from cu20b for instructions on how to get files. Bitnet: There is a bitnet server that has most versions of kermit (slightly behind arpanet). I'll post how to get help if there is interest. Uucp: okstate has an anonymous login to distribute kermit. I'll post details if there is interest. Tapes: Tapes of all current versions are available from columbia in serveral common formats. They used to charge $100, but that was when they all fit on one 1600 bpi tape. Frank daCruz can answer kermit questions, (at the above request address) but I'm sure he would apriciate it if you look at the readme files etc. first. -- Bob Larson Arpa: Blarson@Usc-Ecl.Arpa Uucp: ihnp4!sdcrdcf!oberon!blarson __________________________________ Unix: An operating system similar to Os-9, but with less functionality and special features designed to soak up excess memory, disk space and CPU time on large, expencive computers. -- Os-9/68000 operating system users manual

Ckermi.ann was actually obtained from okstate using the procedures described below: The files are on CU20B as KER:CK*.*, available via anonymous FTP. The file CKERMI.DOC provides user-level documentation as well as a description of the program organization and hints for adapting it to new systems. Within several days the files should also be available on BITNET via KERMSRV (to get started with KERMSRV, type SMSG RSCS MSG CUVMA KERMSRV HELP), and to Unix systems via UUCP from Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK. Here's how to UUCP to OK State: You need to set up "okstate" as a site in your "L.sys" UUCP dialing file using the information listed below. You can then issue the following command on your system: uucp okstate\!/u/kermit/ck\* /usr/spool/uucppublic (this example will retrieve the new Unix version of Kermit) The "/usr/spool/uucppublic" is chosen as the destination on your system since the destination must be WIDE OPEN (drwxrwxrwx) to everyone. You should not remove files from your uucppublic until the entire transfer is complete including any redials that are necessary. If you do remove some files our system may retransmit them, resulting in a higher phone bill for you. -- UUCP Login information -- Site Name : okstate Phone number : (405) 624-6953 (one line only) Login name : uucpker Password : thefrog Hours : 10:00pm - 10:00am central time (7 day per week) Problem : okstate!uucp-support (UUCP) reports : uucp-support%okstate@csnet-relay (ARPA) The phone number is for 300/1200 baud (bell compatible). -- Dennis Bednar Computer Consoles Inc.

Is there an X25 connection to okstate? I tried several times to call the number indicated using various ( no doubt including illegal ) modems but has had no success whatsoever. I tried all known ( i.e. to me ) american and european modem standards. -- Two's complement, but three's an int. Hans Albertsson EIS, USENET/uucp: {decvax,philabs}!mcvax!enea!erix!erisun!hans
