RUMBA is much better than our old connection tool, but one thing I cannot figure out how to do is transfer files. Our old tool had a separate FTP window we used to drag and drop the files we need from Windows to UNIX. I was wondering if RUMBA provided the same.

I researched and found the ‘Transfer” menu that allows transferring using Kermit, Zmodem, Ymodem, Xmodem, or Text. Most files we transfer will be excel/CSV files. It seems none of the above will work on our systems as I don’t believe Kermit and the others are recognized on our UNIX hosts. Is there another way to transfer files using RUMBA between Windows and UNIX hosts – like a FTP window to drag files over, or should I visit our UNIX SAs and see if Kermit is a possibility to install for us?
