I also had the same problems here with our Suns, except with the 2400 baud
modem connected to one of our main fileserver's (Jupiter's) /dev/ttyd0.
The problems all stemmed from the Cisco Terminal Multiplexor that was used.
If your Unix (tm of AT&T) is accessed through one of these babies or through
something similar, it is necessary (it is here, at least) to set download
mode on the Multiplexor (typing `set download.mode') BEFORE logging in,
and using rlogin protocol instead of Telnet protocal to select a host (in
my case, the name of the Sun I wanted to use), by typing `rlogin host'
Then uploads and downloads preceeded nicely and error-free.
