Actually, I'll be tricky and start with RSX, and if that fails, try VMS, on the
client side. While the server should understand both.
Now I just need to figure out the binary blob. Could you capture one from a
plain text file transfer for me? I think that should be enough.
(Actually, any file, as long as you can also provide me with what a DIR /FULL
shows for the file.)
I have a very strong suspicion what is in there, I just want to verify it.
When I looked earlier there were a lot of zeros. Guessing is probably not worth it. I
think it would be more productive to dig through the source to the HGFTP server. The
source is in the HGFTP033.F saveset within the previously mentioned zip file. The module
FTP_FTON.B32 seems to contain the relevant magic:
Thanks.
If you don't have the system to unpack the zip and extract these files from the
saveset I'll be glad to send them directly. Otherwise I'm done digging.
This should be enough. The thing is, I was expecting it to be pretty much this. It's
just a couple of magic values that needed to be identified.
You have done more than enough. I do not expect that you have to do any more. I eventually
would just like to test/verify this against a live system. This weekend probably...
