[comp.sys.hp] Kermit Basic 5.0 HP9000-236

Help!

We have an HP9000-236, running Basic 5.0 and would like to be able to
perform file transfers to the local UNIX network (VAX 11/780's, etc).

We have a copy of Kermit on the network machines, but have been unable
to download it successfully (embarrassing but true!).

We have tried to get a copy from Interex, but they only seem capable of
sending us Kermit for Pascal 5.0, which we neither have nor want!

So if anyone has Kermit for the HP9000-236 under Basic 5.0, and would
be willing to make a copy on a 3 1/2" diskette and mail it to us, we
would be very grateful -- I might even make you a deal on this HP9845A
I have just declared surplus.......

Or perhaps I am barking up the wrong tree, is there anything better, like
TCP/IP under HP Basic 5.0????

	You might try contacting NRC (Network Research Corp.).  I know they
were working on a port of their Fusion product (telnet and ftp) to the HP
BASIC/WS.  I remember seeing something about this in _Workstation_ (when it
was _HP_Design_&_Automation_), but they don't seem to have ads. there, so I 
can't come up with an address or phone number.  I have not used this product,
myself.
