Z4648252@SFAUSTIN.BITNET (Z4648252) (06/22/89)
Could a helpful soul show me what I am doing wrong in requesting
files? Note that I have tried upper and then lower case. This is
the lower case attempt:
send binaries/volume1/idle12
send binaries/volume2/arc521b
send binaries/volume2/monofont
send binaries/volume2/timecode
I get back the following error report:
The SSYX archive server has received your request.
The server could not find in your message the name of anything to send.
If you need instructions, send the server a message saying "help"
I know that I am going to feel real stupid, but what am I doing
wrong? I have followed, or so I thought, the server's instructions
perfectly. Like I say, real stupid.
(sorry 'bout the composition of this thing. We're having other problems
as well!)

This problem had me running round in circles a few weeks back until it finally dawn on me.. Regards, Scott Pett (Sun UK : Education Department).

This is > the lower case attempt: > send binaries/volume1/idle12 > send binaries/volume2/arc521b > send binaries/volume2/monofont > send binaries/volume2/timecode Of course that won't work you have to read the instructions very carefully, the right syntax is. send binaries/volume1 idle12 send binaries/volume2 arc521b send binaries/volume2 monofont send binaries/volume2 timecode note the blank at this positon it is nesseary if you want to get somthing from the server which is split into parts the syntax is send binaries/volume1/turtle part01 send binaries/volume1/turtle part02 and so on. Hope it will help Marco Gommersbach uunet!hpda!hplabs!hpbbrd!hpbeo25!marcog
