Subject: VT100 EMULATION THRU VM?

I've seen people ask questions about different product usages to access
those parts of the net that demand vt100 emulation.

I have a further question.  I'm at a site that has a 396 under msdos.
It's using Procomm vt100 emulation.  I dial into a major mainframe system
using VM/CMS and thru this have complete access to internet.  Often I FTP
or TELNET into different parts of the system.  I always have trouble when
I connect into a system that demands vt100 such as dra.com.  I surmise
that the crux of the problem is that VM/CMS and its 3270 hardware/software
systems are fielding vt100/ascii thruput from both the Internet system and
my emulated terminal and processing them using 3270 logic.  Is there any
way that I can signal any piece of this setup with the message that for
this session I would like the vt100 commands transfered direct, letting
my terminal emulator properly setup the screen?  Or is this just beyond
hope?

It's not available through the InterNet directly; that is, you can't
telnet into it.  It is a subscription service that uses its own
software, similar to Prodigy, but different in a number of other
aspects.  I belong to America Online _and_ Prodigy, and use them for
very different purposes.  I like the AOL interface and the online
educational offerings.  I appreciate Prodigy's news coverage.  I use
InterNet for most of my online time, but it's fun to have more
colorful options, so long as the cost isn't prohibitive.  

Oh, one other difference between Prodigy and AOL:  Prodigy is a
flat-rate system; AOL has a time-based rate structure.

AOL _does_ have InterNet mail access, however; so far as I know,
Prodigy has not yet produced it, although it has been mentioned.  You
can write to people at AOL by appending @aol.com to their username.

Dear Fellow Netters:



I have two questions for some knowledgeable netters.

1. What kind of error control scheme does FTP protocol use ?, e.g.
is it GO BACK N, SELECTIVE REPEAT ETC., also is there any FEC provided.

2. The reason I ask this is that I need to transfer data long distance 
using modems connected to PCs at both ends.  I would like to save on the
telephone cost as much as possible.  Does anyone have an experience doing
this ?  What package/protocol would you recommend ? 


Thanks

I work with the Census bureau's TIGER/Line files, which have a single record
for each linesegment in the U.S., and territories. A line segment might be
anything from a road to a river to an intangible boundary such as county lines
or voting districts. Obviously, there are a *lot* of these such segments
(over 6500 in the county where I live, which has a population of 20,000)
and the larger counties are extremely large. This summer, I geocoded both 
Harris Co. (Houston) and Wayne Co. (Detroit) with Arc/Info, a GIS, and each
county took about 75Mb of space, double that to sort and manipulate. An
electronic database of this kind for the entire U.S. would be very large,
stated mildly. For just one state, a database with as detailed information
as is contained in a common street atlas would be (just a guess) around a 
gigabyte of storage. So I doubt that there is one.

 I was recently informed (by a popular computer magazine) that Portal was
available via the internet.

 Is this true? If so, what is the site address? I'm quite willing to pay
for the Portal services, just as long as I can access them through the
internet. Unfortunately, that same magazine doesn't have in it how to
contact Portal, so that's why I'm posting here.

 Also, does anyone know of Portal can be access via anonymous ftp? I hear
they've got some incredible archives there that are absolutely HUGE.

Please reply via e-mail, since I frequent so many different usenet
groups...

Yes, you can access Compuserve through hermes.merit.edu

Type compuserve at the "Which Host?" prompt.

But beware that there is a surcharge for using that connection.  I tried
Compuserve for a short while (I thought it was outrageously priced) and
did connect in the above manner.  I think I had charges of $0.88/hr connect
time during the evening or night...  I think it was more like a couple of
dollars an hour during the day.  It is all billed to your CIS account.

There are at least a dozen or so high schools with their own Internet domain.
Try NETFIND (telnet bruno.cs.colorado.edu  login  netfind) using the (3), (3)
again, and then (2) search strategy typing in   high   to get the list.

These schools include:


Clear Lake High School
Faith Heritage Academy
George Washington Carver High School
Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk Central School

There are also a number of school districts with their own Internet domains.

Obviously, there are *many* others with dialup connections to the Internet.

Another source on this would be K12.net

Not much, if any. It uses TCP, which provides reliable virtual connection
services and it's own error correction/error detection and packet
sorting. There is some additional MINOR checking in the FTP protocol,
but it's major use is just handling formatting.

Okay, you need a windowing protocol. That will allow transfers to
go without any waiting for acknowledgements and such unless there is a
problem. This axes Xmodem, Ymodem, and some versions of Kermit.

Next, you will want something with a minimum of overhead. That kills
kermit.

Also, you'll need something that has a relatively fast error recovery.
This tends to kill most forms of Zmodem, which usually tend to have
relatively slow recovery speeds.

This leaves you with Sealink, WXmodem, and a few others. I can't speak
for Jmodem, Bimodem, Blast, or any of the other odd protocols that you'll
find in any of the ftp sites (lack of experience)..just try them and see.
