Am I doing something wrong? Hope you DID change transfer mode to BINARY before you GET the files. And hope you used reliable protocol to download it to your Apple, otherwise, I have nothing to say. >rubio-1@uiuc.edu -- |I want Rocket Chip 10 MHz, Z-Ram Ultra II, UniDisk 3.5 | cyliao@wam.umd.edu | |I want my own NeXT, 50MHz 68040, 64Mb RAM, 660Mb SCSI, | Chun Yao Liao | | NeXT laser printer, net connection. | Accepting Donations!| /* If (my_.signature =~ yours) coincidence = true; else ignore_this = true; */

Hope you DID change transfer mode to BINARY before you GET the files. > And hope you used reliable protocol to download it to your Apple, > otherwise, I have nothing to say. > There is a problem with downloading binary image files from a mainframe that requires parity checking (such as the 7E1 required here by PSU). If you are running Kermit on the mainframe to send the files to your Apple then you should try using Kermit on your Apple to receive the files as Kermit provides for 8-bit-quoting along you to get all the information. I had problems getting binary GIF files using ProTerm until I discovered this. Now I have no problems when when using Kermit to receive these files. Just be sure that you have Kermit set to the correct parity and that the Quote-character is the same for both ends of the connection. Hopefully this will help those people that have been having so many problems FTP-ing binary files. *-------------------------------* | ......
