Under SunOS 4.0.1, has anyone tried to hook a Mac to one of the 16 ports
on an ALM-1 board on a Sun-4/280 and has successfully used Mac Versaterm
(or Kermit) to transfer files back and forth between the Suns and the Mac
?

I'll be interested in any parties that had any success with it.  I haven't
had any success so far -- the Sun is always 2 character behind and
sometimes the transfer broke midway (size of file ~ 30K) although I've no
problem whatsoever if I hook my Mac to the serial ports at the back of my
3/50 or 4/110.

Any pointers will be much appreciated
