Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="iso-8859-1"<BR>><BR>> I have been
studying the best way to copy from a vax simulator with openvms to a linux
host, text files. The Docs look like telnet and kermit are the way to do it.
So is there not a device like ISO that I can copy TOO? I wouldn't think
because cdrom is RO after all. and 'set rq writeenable' isn't working nor is
anything to do with cdrom
working.<BR>><BR>> There may be several
ways to do this. I am not concerned so much about binary files as several .txt
files. Am I on the right track with telnet and kermit from those who have
attempted and done this?<BR>><BR>>
