UUPC/extended version 1.07g is now available via an anonymous Kermit server running on kendra, my home system. To retrieve it, you will have to have a Kermit which issue the GET and FINISH commands to a Kermit server. Instructions: Set your Kermit to its maximum packet size and 3 byte checksum. Call 617-641-4817 at 1200 or 2400 baud, No parity, ^S/^Q flow control. The best time to call is between 10 am and 5 pm weekdays, and any night between midnight and 5 AM. Other times, the system can be down or busy for extended periods of time. After connect, press RETURN and kendra's "login:" prompt will appear. Enter the user id: anonymous and press return. Note the user id will not echo until you press RETURN. Enter the password: ribbit and press return. The password will not echo. A short hello message will appear, and then Kermit-MS will await your command. Escape to your local command mode, and then issue a GET for one or more of the following files: name bytes date time uucpsrc .arc 155561 1-08-90 20:09 uucpuser.arc 133913 1-08-90 20:09 uupcsrc .zip 120601 1-08-90 19:48 uupcuser.zip 106841 1-08-90 19:49 Note that if I rebuild the files, the size and date will change. The UUPCSRC files include the source and the raw documents, the UUPCUSER files includes the executables and sample files. When done, issue the FINISH command to shutdown the Kermit server. DO NOT just hang up your telephone, because then you'll lock up kendra, which is not critical but is rather unkind since now you know better. The files are not available via FTP because I am currently unable to cheaply upload the files. Call TELENET Customer Service and ask them about trouble ticket 0102489, when they fix THAT the files will be refreshed on clutx. For now, the obsolete files have been deleted. Please direct all questions to ahd@clutx.clarkson.edu.
