Since I started downloading binaries from comp.binaries.amiga I haven't had much succes. When I unpack the zoo-archive in UNIX (I do have an Amiga-version but I haven't been able to download it...) everything is allright, but when I have downloaded the several files using Kermit, I always get the error message 'File is not a object module'. On both Amiga and UNIX-side I did 'set file type binary'. Does anybody know whether the problem is in using Kermit (should I use another program ?) or am I doing something wrong ????? I'd rather have an answer by email, but when you use the net it's fine by me too. Many thanks in advance... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | | It's not that I'm afraid to die.

There are over a dozen different implementations of the Kermit protocol
running on the Amiga. Murphy's Law says they are imperfect and all have
different quirks. Which version of which program were you running on your
Amiga, and which version of Kermit on the other end?
