Does anyone have any experience using the VAX 5 system? I have an XMODEM program (plus RZ/SZ) and cannot seem to get any of them to work. The XMODEM comes closest to working, but it doesn't seem to exchange the proper data headers with any xmodem programs I have on my amiga. HELP PLEASE!!! Kermit is getting OLD! Steve Brady

I have been downloading from a VAX (running VMS) using XMODEM, YMODEM and
ZMODEM without any problems for quite sometime. Define your configuration a
little better and the specifics of the problem you are having - ie. what
emulator, what VAX program(s) etc...
What do you mean by the VAX 5 system - is this software or hardware?

Check you environment. Our VAX talks to terminals at 7E1 and has some hardware between me and it which prevents using all 256 byte codes. If your system is set up this way there is not much you can do. XMODEM requires an 8N1 set up and a 'virtual wire' between the host and client systems. RZ and SZ do not support any environment but 8N1 on the VAX. The author, Chuck Forsberg (sp?), has informed me that a zmodem which will work in 7E1 will be available for license soon. Contact Omen Technologies in (I think) Oregon. If you find a solution to your problem I would be very interested in hearing what it is. Rick
