Ah!!!! Never mind! I started digging through the old
user
directories on the machine and found a copy of kermit.exe!
Yes! The hacker spirit triumphs!
Ok, sounds like you're all set. If I were you the first things I'd
stick on there would be Zip and Zmodem. Kermit is painfully
slow and most installation file sets are zipped these days.
If you want to break free of the terminal server, CMUIP is a
freeware IP stack for VMS.
Good luck with it.
