Well, I'll assume you know how to tell your Unix machine to start sending you a fie by Xmodem... What terminal parameters are you using? If you are calling at 7/E/1 or basically anything that is not 8/N/1, then Xmodem will not work, nor will Ymodem. In fact, Kermit is the only protocol that works in the 7-bit world, but of course you don't have that yet. 'Tis a problem. Perhaps you can get a friend with an IBM to download the files for you, then Xmodem them from his machine to yours. Or, if you can get 8/N/1 connected, you can download them yourself, but there can be tons of problems depending on what computers and network links there are between you and the computer. I know that getting a download working on our mainframe systems on campus is not trivial. Unless you use Kermit, of course. -- David DeSimone, aka "Fuzzy Fox" on some networks. /!/!
