Is there a file transfer protocol that works well over satellite?  Zmodem
is supposed to allow the amount of outstanding data to be specified, but
the sources that have been posted do not include a dialer or login routine
to establish a connection.  Does anyone have something like this working?
How about uucp 'x' protocol (or 'f' or 'g' with the # of packets increased)
or a kermit w/sliding windows for unix?  Is there any real-world data on
transfer rates using any of these protocols?
