I wrote a small csh script to backup a 50meg hard disk on a mini to a mainframe using FTP. After the successful transfer of about 60-70 files I get a "No buffer space message". The script was originally written to run on the mini (A Convergent Technoligies Miniframe / System V) to FTP "PUT" files to the mainframe (a Pyramid running 4.2BSD). I got a "out of space message". Thinking that it was a possible limitation of the small machine I modified the script to do GETS and ran it from the Pyramid. I encounter the same buffer problem. How do I fix it ? Or, how do I get around it ? -------------------------------------------------------- Script started on Mon Jul 6 16:00:07 1987 (debug output of successful transfer of approx 60 files deleted. . . relevant output follows. . . ) ---> PORT 128,135,12,98,7,114 ---> RETR /src/hack/hack.worm.c ---> PORT 128,135,12,98,7,115 ---> RETR /src/hack/hack.worn.c ---> PORT 128,135,12,98,7,116 ---> RETR /src/hack/hack.zap.c /src/hack/hack.zap.c: No buffer space available. ---> PORT 128,135,12,98,7,117 ---> RETR /src/hack/def.edog.h /src/hack/def.edog.h: No buffer space available.
