Subject: Need help with Unix FTP & KERMIT
Help! They're getting rid of the TOPS-20 system here, and I need
help in getting files intact from SIMTEL20 via UNIX ftp and kermit.
The problem I'm having is that when I've done a GET from SIMTEL20 (via
'Type Tenex (8bit)' (ascii & binary don't work with .LBR's), and then
download to my Kaypro via kermit, the libary is no good.
The .LBR directory is intact, as are all files that are normal ascii.
The problem is with the crunched files. NONE of them can be typed,
uncrunched, or reassembled in any way.
Do I have to ascify, bytify, or something-ify the file before I download
it, or is the problem with FTP?
Thanks,
-Pat Price
