Pat,
I believe I answered your question, but in case it scrolled off before
you got the chance to read it….we have had problems reported on uploading via
Ahost B protocol, and a few folks have reported problems with some downloads,
but we (the sysops) are unable to reproduce the problems. Neither I nor Steve
have had any difficulty doing either. In fact one night, Steve went and
downloaded a file via B protocol with AHost that someone in CO said was
impossible to download (it may have been you, I forget who exactly it was).
In any event, B Protocol does speed things up a bit during a download,
but if you are having problems with it…the speed up is lost with the failed
download. I would suggest you use Xmodem until a newer version of Ahost is
available. As 99% of the files were uploaded via Xmodem, there is still the
need to CHOP executable files even if they are downloaded via B protocol.
Also one other thing….do you have Xon/Xoff control disabled thru
preferences if you are using 1.2 KS/WB?
