Pull file from Win2K PC (Latency) to HP-UX 11using RS232

[RAVI B. HIREMATH]

Hi pals,

I've been asked to look into uploading files from Win2K PC to
HP-UX 11 box using serial port connection with RS232-C protocol.

I know in HP-UX, there is a utility called kermit. But this works
with another HP-UX box at the other end. Help me, if you ever come
across or implemented this type of requirement.

thx in advance,
Ravi B Hiremath

Hi,

Tera Term supports the Kermit protocol but I
never used it.

Other way is to use a dial-up connection. I've recently established a serial dial-up betwenn a Win2K server and a HPUX11i. Once the connection is established you can use ftp to sent/retrieve files, but which imho is a little bit exaggerated ;)

If this were me, I would download the freely available Pcomm+ from
http://www.rtr.com/ReadyPaks/

It's a superset of the old PC program Pcomm and scripts very well under HP-UX. I've used it on HP-UX for several years without a hiccup.
