Hi All,
I'm having trouble with transfer from the VAX (running VMS 5.2) and my
1040 ST (using Uniterm V2.0e 002). I've tried both xmodem (I don't know the
version number on the VAX) and VMS Kermit-32 version 3.3.118.
I am able to send files from my ST to vax, But I can do the reverse. With
both methods I get disk write error just before it is complete. According to
the transfer screen, it transferes, but the file doesn't get written to the
disk.
I was able to do this with the school's AT&T computers, but not my own. If
anyone has any ideas, please either post them, or e-mail me direct.
Thanks (in advance).

I use Uniterm 2.0e and I use the KERMIT utility on the VAX and not FTP or someother way. I also always use a ramdisk and I never encountered the problem - maybe the disk you are using is full? or is the protect tab opened? When I use KERMIT on the vax I tell it to go into server mode then I do all the stuff through Uniterm. It seems that may be a hardware problem, maybe a cable is loose or something. Try to use a ram disk and then copy the files to the disk manually... -------------------------------------------- | Paul Sears University of Houston | | "ThunderCat" --------------------- | | node COSC10HV@Elroy.Uh.Edu | | 129.7.1.2 or TECHJW@Elroy.Uh.Edu | |__________________________________________| 'the greater an individual's power over others, the greater the evil that might possibly originate with him' - PROPAGANDA, off the CD, A SECRET WISH

You do not say what kinds of files you are transfering. If they are binary, you need to SET FILE TYPE BINARY on the VAX.

Hallo!
It could even be a "SET FILE TYPE BINARY" or a "SET FILE TYPE FIXED",
depending on the filestructure under VMS (only if the files are binary,
ascii should be no problem).
Sincerly,
Matthias
