Setup: Mac IIcx, system 6.0.4, ZTerm 0.85 or 0.8 HP9000/350, HP/UX 7.0, rz v1.14 and sz v1.23 Amiga with many and varied comm programs ibmpc with many and varied comm programs rz/sz both work when talking to an Amiga or an ibmpc. The Mac won't talk to anyone. I've tried all sorts of settings, both on the Mac and on the Unix machine, with no luck. I've tried hardwired connections and modem dialup. I'm about ready to try throwing the Mac out the window. What's the trick? -- Jim Wright jwright@quonset.cfht.hawaii.edu Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Corp.

It has been up in the v3.x range for the past year or two. The latest release came out 2/2/90 and includes 3.07 of sz. You should be able to find it on GEnie, CIS, or the landline BBS mentioned in the sig below. Not sure if sumex has it posted yet or not...

The trick was that the zmodem I got from uunet.uu.net was quite old, while the zmodem on sumex-aim.stanford.edu is not so old. Using sz v3.03 and rz v3.00 all now seems to be OK. Thanks to Barry Brown <bebrown@UCSD.EDU> for pointing this out. -- Jim Wright jwright@quonset.cfht.hawaii.edu Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Corp.

Sending files from the Ultrix host works fine. (It's the fastest protocol yet!). Receiving files from the Macintosh using rz does not work. ZTerm keeps trying to send, and returns with error message "ZRPOS = zero" or something similar. Does anyone know why? I tried looking today at sumex-aim.stanford's archive. They still have the older version of rzsz (3.00). T.C. Wan Internet: tcwan@umiami.miami.edu Univ. of Miami, FL

Both the listed versions above I believe are very old releases. Current versions I think are over 3.0? there abouts...you might look for sources for the later versions to install on your system. -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp.
