Has anyone managed to transfer files with ST-Minix' rz/sz programs? If so, what is the magic encantation? I have tried every combination of commands/sequences I can think of. A quick glance of the sources offers no obvious clues. I am running ST-1.5.10.3 with tty.h's NR_CONS set to 1 (stterm would not work when set to 2). One attempt leads to a "login:" loop (also, the TX light on my modem shows solid data being transmitted...?). To get into the loop, I "stty 19200 8", then "stterm". Next I establish a connection to a Sun. [I don't think it matters if I start "sz" on the Sun.] Then, I escape and issue the "rz" command exactly as indicated in the manual. Now comes the loop. I hope I didn't forget something in my problem description; human memory has no parity bits or checksums... :^) I have successfully transfered a file from a SparcStation1 using the native ST-TOS and the STalker desk accessory (beta version), so I have to assume my problem is either in Minix or my usage of it... sigh. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Pierre Fortin fortinp@bnr.ca (613)763-2598
