Comment:

Is it possible to retrieve files from an OS/2 (3.0) machine using FTP (or other). I need to copy the files to a Windows machine.

I thought I could just GET them with FTP. If not possible (no OS/2 FTP Server), could I schedule a task that would copy the files from the OS/2 machine to a windows machine?

If I have to install software on the OS/2 machine, it would have to be super-light-weight (small).

TIA-
PjC

Can't you use a terminal program such as hyperaccess lite on the OS2 machine, a null modem cable, and hyperterminal on the Windows box?

Sounds like you have the systems networked. Why not install NETBIOS on both systems for peer/workgroup, share the OS/2 folder(s)/File(s) to be copied and just copy them over the network?
