    Hi,

    I need to set up an ftp process via ssl. This is completely new territory
    for me, so any help will be appreciated. Also, sftp, which uses ssh, is
    different and can't be used for the particular application - it requires an
    ssl setup. (I didn't realize that ssl and ssh were different until I
    started researching this project.)

    I found and downloaded a current version of Kermit (8.0), which indicated
    that it could be used for ssl ftp. I can compile plain Kermit, without SSL
    and that works fine. However, I can't seem to get the right combination of
    parameters to get the SSL security working. There was no entry in the
    Kermit "make" file for Tru64 5.1b or 5.1b with ssl or 5.1b with any other
    special security features, for that matter. Here are the changes I made to
    the original Kermit make file, if it helps you see something I've done wrong
    or left out (various experiments I tried to the make command are commented
    out)...

    Has anyone else used Kermit with ssl on Tru64 5.1b?  How did you do it?  Or
    - is there another ssl ftp program available (preferably free) that you have
    used instead (and how did you install/configure it)?  
    Thanks for any advice or suggestions you may have.
