I use it every day, and if you have not used Kermit lately, you may not realize that when it uses large packets and sliding windows it is almost as fast as zmodem. Kermit is no longer a slouch in the speed department. Assuming you can ftp, go to watsun.cc.columbia.edu and cd to ~/kermit/sw. Then mget ckc* and cku*. Rename ckuker.mak to makefile, and "make sunos41" (or whatever is appropriate for your machine). -- Jay S. Rouman Voice: 517/773-7887 | Distrust education.
