I have had no trouble whatsoever downloading to the 48. But, if I try to upload a directory it goes to 2 or maybe 4 blocks and croaks, like it can't get a good checksum. I can upload single items, in ascii mode. Trying those same files in binary mode, it dies on either the 4th block or the 15th block, depending on which file, and apparently at the same place in the same file. ARCHIVE stops on the 2nd block. (as the others, 10 retrys, then fails) I am using OS9 Kermit on a Tandy CocoIII. Could there be a problem in my Kermit? Oh, also, the "cable" is rather makeshift, and unshielded, but, again, id downloads OK. Any help GREATLY appreciated. I sure would like to be able to back memory. -Ken ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | _ , __ _ _ | "It's green . . ." | | ' ) / / ) // // | Mr. Scott | | /-< _ ____ /--< __ . . ____ _ // // | | | / ) | | ===============================================================================
