Hi, and thanks for all the information that various people sent me, but
perhaps I wasn't clear with what I wanted to do. I can already
communicate with the server from the cornella machine, which is an IBM
4381 or something like that, but I have an account on cornell's unix
machine, the batcomputer, and I want to use that computer for
downloading to avoid IBM's EBCDIC, which I fear may be messing up files
that are uuencoded and arced. Can anyone help me with interactive
message on the unix operating system? Maybe all I need is an address
for the server, which is UH-INFO@UHUPVM1 on bitnet, but the batcomputer
claims that UHUPVM1 is not a valid node when I tried it with the TALK
command. What I am trying right now is transferring the files from my
cornella account to my batcomputer account with FTP, which worked,
although I haven't yet gotten the files out and onto the ST yet.
Thanks,
Adam Engst
