  21. Without SERVER mode, a command must be issued on each of
  22. the two systems for each transfer:
  23.  
  24.      System A <----------------------------> System B
  25.  
  26.      Send xxxx   ........................>   Receive
  27.        ...                                     ...

  29.        ...                                     ...
  30.

  32. series of commands from the other:

  41.

  43.
