I can connect up to the vax and ~t filename with text files. That is I can download ascii files. But when I download .Z files the whole thing gets hosed. The files don't turn up correct on the other system. I can't find anything that explicitly says that tip will only transfer ascii files in the man page, so I am hoping there is a way to do it. Any help will be greatly apreciated. Please send responces to waldorf@venice.sedd.trw.com Thanks in advance.
