I have a few questions I hope someone can help me with:

1) What is a good binary transfer program between the Mac and UNIX machines?
The computer I am connected to has a program called "xmodem" but I can't seem
to get it to work with White Knight (11.02).  There's always Kermit, but it is
PAINFULLY slow.  I've heard of macget/macput, but have been unable to find the
source code for it to compile on the Vax.  I am looking for anything xmodem-
like, but would prefer some of the newer, sexier protocols like YMODEM or 
ZMODEM.

2) I have been able to catch snipets about a problem with Quantum 40 meg
hard disks.  Since I have joined the net only a few weeks ago, I think I
missed the bulk of the thread, could someone please post a synopsis of the
symptoms/solutions since I have been having some problems with my HD40.

Thanks!
