|   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):

I've been tranferring any kind of file (including .zoo) between a SUN 3/160
and the Amiga with A-Talk III for over a year with absolutely no problem when
using ZMODEM (in fact I ONLY use ZMODEM for speed).

On the sun I have been using lately a version that I downloaded about 6 months
ago from teleGodzilla (Chuck Forsberg's bbs).
