Additional Product Information
C-Kermit software from the Kermit Project at Columbia, University
offers a consistent and portable approach to, serial and network
communications, file transfer, character-set translation, and numeric
and alphanumeric, paging. C-Kermit is available for hundreds of
different, platforms including all varieties of UNIX (Linux, FreeBSD,
NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, SunOS, SCO, Linux, AIX, HP-UX, IRIX, QNX,
Plan 9, and hundreds more), as well as VMS, Stratus VOS, DG AOS/VS,
and others, and works in, conjunction with its companion programs on
Windows, 3.x/9x/NT/2000, DOS, IBM Mainframes, and almost any other,
platform you can think of. As a serial communications program,
C-Kermit includes a sophisticated location-independent dialer and
dialing, directory, allowing the same entries to be used from any
country or area within a country. On TCP/IP networks, C-Kermit can
act as Telnet client, Rlogin client, or as a server that can be
accessed from clients elsewhere on the network. It can also make and
use Sun and IBM X.25 connections. C-Kermit offers online sessions
with session logging, character-set translation, and key mapping; it
offers error-free, efficient, and robust file transfer with recovery
and update features; auto-upload and -download; client/server and
remote access features; character-set translation for Western and
Eastern European languages, Cyrillic, Japanese, Greek, and Hebrew in
both terminal connection and file transfer (a unique feature of Kermit
software), and in now also Unicode. Kermit software is unique in its
ability to transfer entire directory trees between unlike platforms
(for example, between Solaris and Windows, or Linux and VMS), with
automatic per-file text/binary-mode switching and record-format and
character-set conversion for text files. Kerberos, SRP, and SSL/TLS
security are included, allowing C-Kermit to be a secure, scriptable
Telnet, Rlogin, SSL/TLS, FTP, or HTTP client capable of secure
authentication without sending passwords over the connection, and of
strong encryption. C-Kermit can also be used to script SSH
connections through the external SSH program. An Internet Kermit
Service capability is included as a secure alternative to FTP service;
C-Kermit 8.0 doubles as both client and server. All operations can be
programmed for automatic unattended, execution in a consistent way,
regardless of platform or connection method, using the portable Kermit
scripting language, which includes file and communications i/o, block
structure, looping, variables, arrays, functions, and structured
programming features.
