Being a faitful registered Telix user I feel compeled to help! :-) I did several kermit transfers with my local VAX to get Zmodem up to it. I had no problems (other than slowness). Make sure your useing regular Kermit, Telix does not support sliding windows. Ad for Zmdoem downloads. To get it to work with the VAX to use the command "sz -l 512 filename". The -l 512 makes the maximum block length 512 bytes and fixed all my problems. Suprisingly you don't loos more than 3-4 CPS in speed either. Try it. -- Leo Just another day in the life........

I get better performance using "sz -w 2048 filename". BTW, to use telix when communicating with machines which only offer kermit, I have set up the regular ms kermit as an external protocol in telix. This allows putting the host kermit in server mode.

If you don't like Telix's Kermit, set this one up as an external protocol for Telix.
