I was having the same problems.  You have to check with the administrator
(not the docs) of the Unix system to make sure what the correct settings are:
data bits, stop bits, parity, handshake, etc.  Also, I was informed that
before I connect to my Unix, there is a command "terminal download" that
must be entered onto the server before logging on so that the server
will not interfere.  As for uploading binary data, type rz -b to assure
the upload will be binary.  Everything works great for me now!
Hope this helps.
