[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Downloading over ether

news@unmvax.unm.edu (USENET News System) (09/26/87)

I have an interesting request: does anyone have some software for use
with decnet or tcp/ip which would allow me to download (from a vax) to
a PC on an ethernet?  What I'd like to be able to do is load dos or
a terminal emulator or something like that, hopefully being able to choose
between a few options.  I realize that this would require either a rom
or a special boot disk for the PC, but that would be ok.
I guess what I need is an automatic tftp to load into ram.
thanks

Can anyone tell me how to download program from info-ibmpc lending library
to bitnet?   I am interested on the dBase III compiler (PD).  I know CSNEWS,
but it does not have files which is in the lending library.  Any help is
appreciated.
