Have you remember the old good Norton? or maybe you've used tool MC ?

if no, than a few words how to get "better" FTP client and MC tool:

1st
enable internet connection on your box (IP ADDRESS and dns in /etc/resolv.conf)

Code: Select all

(101)xa000000> cat /etc/resolv.conf
search localdomain
nameserver 199.199.199.199
(101)xa000000> /sbin/route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         192.168.1.254   0.0.0.0         UG    1      0        0 eth0
(101)xa000000> ping www.google.com
PING www.l.google.com (64.233.183.147): 56 octets data
64 octets from 64.233.183.147: icmp_seq=0 ttl=241 time=42.4 ms

2nd
download files from mandrake linux:
gpm-1.19.3-3mdk.i586.rpm
gpm-devel-1.19.3-3mdk.i586.rpm
lftp-2.2.5-3mdk.i586.rpm
mc-4.5.51-7mdk.i586.rpm

This is very old linux relase (i mean the kernel and the Mandrake distribution witch is no longer being maintained), so

tried to check with google for file: mc-4.5.51-7mdk.i586.rpm (took 3s to copy&paste)

then tried 2nd link:

http://mdk.linux.org.tw/ftp/pub/Mandrak ... rake/RPMS/

and it works,

then wrote this post, all under 3 minutes

best regards.

btw: I whould copy needed files to pasebin, but they go "trashed" in 30 days...

You can copy them in here. I think I turned ON the file upload on all forums now.

Lovely!!!!! It works!!! Thank u very much.

Allways happy to help others

Sometimes they even help others too

BTW: tried to use a X/Y/Z modem transfer ? Some terminals lack support for kermit protocol and Zmodem is good solution, also i've observer better speed in Zmodem, will attach them here, but not today...
rpm has a very funny name like lrzzs-*.rpm or something.

As I say in the software loading forum (I think I´ve selected the wrong forum) I´ve just installed a few days ago a webmin in a Oxe CS (Alize).
There are many things can be done through it.

Bye
