Sampsa,
The .dd files have all been zipped with the -V switch to preserve VMS file attributes.
Avtually, zipping the .dd files didn t reduce their size much: between 6% and 13% only.
So you might just as well download the original files.
The ftp server is up and running, the hecnet bridge is down btw.

Hans,
Any chance you can bring that FTP server up again?
Also, I tried unzipping the first file, and it seemed to be corrupted...

If there are people interested to finish their ftp sessions, please let me know and I ll start the systems tomorrow again. It is too noisy in the house (and too expensive) to keep them running.

last time I checked the code, I don't think it was using blocking sockets, so it would 'hang' from time to time processing data if there was nothing to read.......
Sampsa noted a marked difference in speed. The straight ftp session ran at
100 kb/s while the HECnet/DECnet connection was five times slower.
My internet connection is based on adsl+. My download speed is about 12 Mb/s
but the uplink (as seen from where I sit) is only 750 kb/s (kb/s is kilobit
per second). So 100 kb/s is pretty slow even for this connection.

You do not need high performance hardware to run the bridge. I've done it
with
a Pentium-166 running NetBSD. The performance issues come from the WAN
bandwidth, or lack thereof... :-)
-Steve
All HECnet traffic passes thru the system that runs the bridge program.
That particular system does have a 100 Mb/s ethernet card but
unfortunately
runs on a 450 MHz Pentium II machine with 256 MB memory... Not exactly hi
performance hardware :(

COPY copies only in record mode. To speed up things you should use a tool
like DEC's FTSV which does block mode copies (among other things).

FTSO is also very useful and efficient. It can talk to a FTP server.
It can continue even if the transfer is interrupted from where it was when the interruption happened.
Really recommended!
I use it for getting VMS patch kits and other big kits.
