I want to know that if I have two 386's with ethernet cards, is there some way that I can transfer files between them over ethernet (a PD program would be BEST!). I have copies of NCSA telnet and the clarkson version of NCSA telnet, but they only allow the PC to act as a SERVER... My ethernet cards are Western Digital.

You could set up one of the PC's as server with telnet (or tn3270) and then run ftp on the other machine. If you don't have ftp, it is in the clutcp.zoo distribution archive on omnigate.clarkson.edu. The directory is /pub/cutcp/v2.2-D. I've done this before without problems (you will need to set up a password file for telnet and enable file transfers). I'm assuming that the ethernet you're talking about using is Internet. If you're trying to just hook them up with cable, I don't know of a way. -- ************************************************************************ *Jim Marks | Georgia Tech Research Institute * *jm21@prism.gatech.edu | Concepts Analysis Laboratory * ************************************************************************

There is a simpel solution, use NCSA telnet as a server then use NCSA ftp to connect the other PC to the first one. Both of those program should be in the NCSA distribution package (telnet and ftp). // Gunnar =============================================================================== Gunnar Dahlstrom Chalmers University of Technology Div.
