If you want to go down the Kermit path you’ll need Kermit for the VMS side and 
you’ll need to find a way to get it into your simulated environment.

I don't want to get involved with FTP. That's setting up tcpip in VMS and 
lately I've been having terrible problems with that. I have set that aside. For 
now anyway. IDK about the old VMSs but openvms is new to me and I don't want to 
go too far too much. Thank's for the idea. My linux does have kermit. Is there 
a way to do this without involving tcp/ip protocols?

How about FTP?

Hi Bill,

Kermit is definitely robust enough to do what you want. You could always do the 
“type the file to your terminal and copy paste,” dance too. That would work for 
text files particularly. ON OS X at least there’s a way to save terminal output 
to a text file as well.
I don’t know about CDs. I’d think that might be a bit of overkill for what you 
want, Kermit’s pretty easy to set up.
Best,
Zack.

    I have been studying the best way to copy from a vax simulator with openvms 
to a linux host, text files. The Docs look like telnet and kermit are the way 
to do it. So is there not a device like ISO that I can copy TOO? I wouldn't 
think because cdrom is RO after all. and 'set rq writeenable' isn't working nor 
is anything to do with cdrom working.

    There may be several ways to do this. I am not concerned so much about 
binary files as several .txt files. Am I on the right track with telnet and 
kermit from those who have attempted and done this?

Bill
