I am posting this for someone who is not on the net
Please respond to me: vogelw@bionette.ucs.orst.edu
and I will foward.

In brief he is having a problem transfering binary files from a VAX running 
kermit to a Mac 
He Writes:

Image name: kermit   Version 3.2.077  Link date:may 8th,1986
	    vmsmit           3.3.111            oct 14th,1986 Linker id:04-00

	    my question would go something like this:

  i have some binary data files on the vax, i have a program which reads (and wr
  (and writes) them compiled on both my mac and the vax.  i have set versaterm
  to receive a binary file (kermit) after setting file type fixed (and i tried
  binary) on my vax based kermit program.  i say send filename, then click
  on my mac to receive binary kermit.  the file comes across, but all cr's
  are translated to lf's in the transferred file. (even thou everthing is
  supposedly set to binary).  Question, what am i doing wrong???
  Does the vax kermit program have a bug??? I have tried this with RedRyder,
  MicrophoneII and VersatermPro with no luck.
