File Transfer
Kermit Parameters
Clicking the Kermit... button in the Initiate File Transfer dialog box will cause the
Kermit Parameters dialog box to be displayed. This enables you to set parameters
specific to the Kermit protocol.
Once the settings have been selected, the initialization file can be modified to reflect
the changes under the heading [TeemTalkFTU,Kermit] by checking the Save
Settings box then clicking the OK button.
Most of the settings in this dialog box affect how outbound and inbound packets are
treated. These settings may need to be reflected by the remote Kermit as well.
Start of Packet
Factory default: CTRL-A (i.e. SOH)
This specifies the character which is used to mark the start of a Kermit packet. The
character should be changed if the remote host intercepts it.
Timeout in secs
Factory default: 5
This specifies how long the remote Kermit should wait before timing out.
Padding count
Factory default: 0
This specifies the number of padding characters to be sent before the packet.
Padding char
Factory default: CTRL-@ (i.e. NULL)
This specifies the character to use for padding.
