Date: Sun, 1 Nov 1992 16:55:06 GMT Nntp-Posting-Host: mcs213f.cs.umr.edu Organization: University of Missouri - Rolla Sender: cnews@umr.edu (UMR Usenet News Post) Originator: jlu@mcs213f.cs.umr.edu Message-ID: <1992Nov1.165506.23710@umr.edu> Lines: 22 Right now, I'm using kermit to log in campus network. While reading this newsgroup, I wonder if there exists any other packages that are better than Kermit. So, here are my problems: 1. What UUCP can do for me except for U-U copy? 2. There is a package for PC called UWPC. It let you login from PC to Unix thru modem and allows multiple sessions (up to 7, I believe) in Unix site. Is there anything similar for 386bsd? 3. To login remote Unix from home (386bsd), what's the best comm package you think? Will a 9600 modem be much better than 2400 except for the increase in speed? Is SLIP or remote mount possible?
