Hi all,

 I am trying to download a binary file using kermit from a unix server
while logged into it in a shell session via telnet...

 I am using a win3.11 telnet client(QVT/Term) to shell into my ISP's unix
server... so far so good until now where/when I want to download/upload a
binary file...

 In my telnet client(QVT/Term) I can go into Kermit Transfer Mode with a
"test" or "binary" option along a "directory" entry box(which default is
my directory where my telnet client(QVT/Term) is on *my*(Win3.11) machine),
a "file" entry box, a "bytes" entry box and a "message" entry box as well
as a "disconnect" or "Shutdown" option... how are these options used in a
zmodem/xmodem/ymodem unix telnet upload/download session??

 my question is this: how do I download using this Kermit from my ISP's
unix server which I only know uses sx, sz and sy proto's/commands??

 do I type sz -b at the unix prompt? then go into kermit transfer mode and
wait? are zmodem, xmodem, ymodem compatible or can they be made compatible
with kermit transfer mode??

 please help

 Andy


 on a lighter note; I attempted to e-mail the .bmp file in question and a
.doc file to myself using Arachne 1.66 yet only the .bmp attachment(which
was attached as attachment #1) got through(I didn't check them in the
outbox*) yet in mime?uuencoded? gobbedy-gook printed out format rather
than a separate distinguishable file-attachment... why is this? why did
this happen? just curious... i've had success attaching .doc files to
arachne e-mails in the past without them coming out printed out in
mime?uuencoded? format

*my copy of arachne 1.66 has gotten "buggy" lately with not only chopping
off any attachments other than attachment #1 but also with *now* being
unable to mail to multiple e-mail addresses... only the first one in the
