#Download & NComm
3 messages in this thread
Hello, All. I have experience in using ZModem with FidoNet BBSses. No problems.
I use NComm, and Compuserve has only XModem and Kermit in common with Ncomm.
Both don't work, when I try to download something. XModem starts transfer, but
gives ten consecutive errors on record one. Kermit just signals an error and
exits. I tried both XModem CRC and XModem checksum, Any suggestions? Thanks!
Anybody have experience with Amiga + Compuserve + NComm?
Hi Remo,
when I was first getting into comms I used NComm. It works fine with BBS's
as you have found. It does not work well with CompuServe however when it
comes to file transfer. ( My theory is that it can't handle the change
from 7E1 for interactive connect to 8N1 when you decide to do file
transfer ) I swapped over to Term v3.4 and it works fine using the YModem
protocol for file transfer, and Xmodem for ascii mail up/downloads.
Term is slightly more bewildering to set up because it is so configurable
but once you get the hang of it, it is a much better comms program.
Once you get file transfer working, download AutoPilot from AmigaVendour
forum. It is an absolute MUST HAVE for Amiga CompuServers.
best,
Tony.

Hi Remo,
Before I switched to autopilot I used Ncomm v3.0 with compuserve &
although I could only down & up load on Xmodem which is very slow I had no
problems at all with it.
What version of Ncomm are you using & what are you settings when you log
onto compuserve?
