Re: Mac SE/30

What version of system software are you using?
System 7 computers should have the 32 bit option built in...

also, which file transfer protocol are you using?
remember they need to be the same on bolth ends.
and to make things easier, and to skip a step, why not just log into AOL
with you term program ftp toApple and d/l it directly.

I could be wrong, I don't know how much access AOL gives it's users to the
shell account.
