I'm trying to transfer a file with sz to a Win95 PC. But neither
HyperTerminal nor Telix for Windows can receive the file. More
exactly, when the byte count reaches about 4K, HyperTerminal or
Telix says "CRC32 mismatch" and then it can't seem to receive any
more nor re-receive the packet that failed. The command lines for
sz I have tried include:

    sz -b file
    sz -b -o file
    sz -b -o -N 128 file

but none works.

Oh, yes, if I use Xmodem (sx) it works fine. And I'm sure the
modems in both side are working properly. Also, I can transfer
the file in the other direction with rz successfully.

Any idea? TIA!
