I too, am running on the same configuration, but I haven't had any trouble with the downloading part... As far as uploading is concerned, handshake seems to have some trouble with xmodem/ymodem. It appears to transfer right until the *very* last block, at which point NACKs and other stuff starts happening like crazy. Oh yes, my host is a SUN 3/50, though I don't know which code was used (BSD 4.3 over here, of course). Kermit works fine, however, and I use it to upload, and xmodem or ymodem to download. I have a feeling that the problem is to do with Handshake's appending an extra 128 bytes onto the end of the file, but I'm not sure. I've written to the author of the program about this, (together with a check for Handshake -- thanks, Eric!) but I just mailed it yesterday, so unless he's monitoring this it'll take some time.... >Brett Harper >harperb@frith.egr.msu.edu >...!uunet!frith!harperb --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Na Choon Piaw laba-2kc@web.berkeley.edu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
