Sounds like the same problem I have. 

If you don't need flow control, you could use this script I found
on a Linux newsgroups:

on the Linux site:
in /etc/services:
modem       20006/tcp   modemd

in /etc/inetd.conf
modem stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /tmp/modemd modem

in /tmp/modemd
#!/usr/bin/perl
select((select(STDOUT), $| = 1)[$[]);
select((select(STDIN), $| = 1)[$[]);
exec "cu", "-l", "$ARGV[0]";
die "$0: Cant exec cu: $!\n";

Use the telser.device on the Amiga, assign your Linux-Host at Port 20006
to Unit 0 and put the telser.device in your terminal settings.

in amitcp:db/telser.conf
0 modem OpenWindow NOOPENWIN NOLINGER DEBUG T:telser.log

in amitcp:db/telser.hosts
modem your.linux.ip 20006 ansi 01010111101 n "" ""

I could download files via Z-Modem w/o any problem,
but I could not upload due to missing CTS/RTS flow control and I can't get
Ncomm and Z-Modem working with XON/XOF... :(

Have fun... Flo.
