I think I have found a bug in Zmodem and was wondering if anyone has a fix
for it. The problem is this: I have the latest version of rz/sz (3.03) and
have compiled it for a Sun4 running Sun OS 4.0.1 ('make bsd'). I can xfer
all files using zmodem just fine and dandy but it can't seem to handle
'ZOO' files. This is specific to the Sun only. Now I don't know if this
is a problem with the BSD version of rz/sz or a problem with the OS itself.
I can send ZOO files from a local BBS here just fine, but I can't do it
with ZOO files from our Unix system.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? and if so do you have some sort
of fix?
Oh yeah.. These are the errors that I get on my end (the recieving end) of
the xfer (I am using JrComm and an Amiga 2000):
