(I use MacTerminal 2.2) The steps I take are : 1) set the file transfer protocol to XMODEM Text in the File Transfer menu. 2) enter "macput -u -t type filename" 3) sit back and watch MacTerminal do it's stuff - for a large file go get a cup of tea :-) Hope this is of help

I have been using Versaterm and I put the file transfer setting in the menu, to Mac Xmodem, and hae never had any problems. -- Mahboud Zabetian buzz@phoenix.princeton.edu 183 Little Hall (609) 520-1270 Princeton University (609) 734-7760 Princeton, NJ 08544 buzz@issun.princeton.edu
