We have a BSDI Pentium hooked up over Ethernet to a card called a VLAN card by a company named Penril. Our dial-in users come in over an asynchronous connect ports to multiplexers, (made by the same company), and then are trunked over hi-speed synchronous data lines to this half-serial, half-ethernet card, and then they get a Telnet connection to our Unix box. For the dial-up connection, everthing seems to work fine, however, Kermit appears to be the only method available for binary file transfer. Is there anyone that might suggest settings for our users .kermrc files? SET PACKET LENGTH? SET LINE? Remember, Telnet on the host end, asynch on the users end.
