- DWM>I have been trying to transfer files between two computers using
- DWM>Procomm Plus, and have been thwarted. I have to call from one
- DWM>computer to the other for both sending and receiving of files.
- DWM>(The goal is to swap the files back and forth as updates occur- it's
- DWM>not often enough to warrant a network.) To do this, in the sending case,
- DWM>I basically tell the remote computer to switch directories, receive
- files,
- DWM>switch dirs again and receive files again. In the receiving case I do the
- DWM>same algorithm by executing a remote script. However, it is messed up by
- DWM>the behavior of zmodem, which recognizes incoming files, and then doesn't
- DWM>do any actual downloading. Here are the scripts:
-
- DWM>Sending files:
-
- DWM>SENDFILE ZMODEM "C:\BARROW\*.*"
- DWM>SENDFILE ZMODEM "C:\BARROW\DATA\*.*"
-
- DWM>SENDFILE ZMODEM "C:\BARROW\DATA\*.*"
-
- To use ZMODEM with ProCOMM do not use SENDFILE. For an upload, the
- command line should read:
-
- DOS "ZMODEMU C:\BARROW\DATA\*.*"
-
- For a download, the line should read:
-
- DOS "ZMODEMD C:\BARROW\DATA\*.*"
-
- DWM>Oh- and there is not a problem becuase of zmodem's file overwriting
- DWM>protection. I move the files to another directory before I start this,
- DWM>so the two directories are empty.
-
- In your ZMODEMD.BAT file put the -c switch (DSZ -c). Files will not
- be overwritten but given new sequential extensions.
