Does anyone know how to get the rz and sz file transfers to work under cu?
I tried to type "sz <filename>" on the host and "~$rz < /dev/tty00" on my
machine and it messed up. I recognized the incomming file but started
echoing it when it started coming through. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have NO desire to use pcomm. Thanks, Terry
With, Without There's alot of it about...
And who'll deny thats what the fighting's all about...

Thanks, Terry I've had no luck using [rs]z under cu on System 5. There are versions of cu that support it. The System 5 cu does not kill it's child process that is listening on the port, and sz/rz get every other input character. I do use both KERMIT and XCMALT as comm shells and they both allow sz/rz to run as children. However, ISC has implemented the 'exclusive use' lock in their 5.3.2, Kermit recognizes this and children can't open the port. Fix the source so that Kermit doesn't make use of exclusive use if your operating system is ISC 5.3.2.2. David Sears EssnJay Systems, Inc. Huntington, CT

The rz and sz doco should mention that these programs are intended for dial-in application only. For dial-out use you can use Professional-YAM which has complete ZMODEM support including Crash Recovery, AutoDownload, etc. Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX ...!tektronix!reed!omen!caf Author of YMODEM, ZMODEM, Professional-YAM, ZCOMM, and DSZ Omen Technology Inc "The High Reliability Software" 17505-V NW Sauvie IS RD Portland OR 97231 503-621-3406 TeleGodzilla:621-3746 FAX:621-3735 CIS:70007,2304 Genie:CAF

Or add an additional command to Kermit so that it will spawn any command you want with its stdin and stdout connected to the modem port. -- Richard Foulk richard@pegasus.com
