 MK> Hey Charles!

 CB>> yea, I suppose I could UUCP one in here (wouldn't be the first
 CB>> time LOL) but that may be frowned upon considering the amount of
 CB>> bandwidth it would take up.

 MK> Would you prefer x-modem over a tcpip connection?

im actually quite partial to zmodem8k and used to do a lot with sealink.

I remember when i used to contract for NEC and had to dial into different *nix
boxes to do updates and troubleshoot
the MIS system that was runinng on them for their PBX systems (mainly british
gas)

my old man thought it was fascinating that I could dial into the local machine
that was a local call for us, but then traverse
from there over the british gas network to the site in glasgow which is what I
needed to look at.

then of course either uploading direct to that machine, or "UUCP'ing" from the
home box to it "via" the local node.

saved my old man and me multiple 4+ hour (one way) drives just to put a disk
in and copy a new binary LOL

then of course i found a sealink version for SCO Openserver and that helped
tremendously. we went from 5bps to like 25bps or something stupid like that lol
