Hi:
I'm using ckermit 6.0.192 for Linux as a telnet client to connect to my
dos/bbs running under os2 and my dos/wfwg machine.
I don't have any problems connecting. However I am having problems
using zmodem whether it's the set protocol command in my .kermrc file
or as a macro via the ckurzsz.ini file.
Uploads seem to work fine. It's the downloads to the linux machine that
I'm having problems with.
Whenever I connect to the BBS and try to download a file using zmodem I
get a data sub-packet too long and bad crc errors. I believe zmodem
exits with a 1 exit status. The file name is actually written on the
linux side but it has 0 bytes.
When I use kermit to download files I don't have any problems. However,
I do have problems using kermit to upload files to the BBS. The BBS
supports kermit, xyz modem as well as moby zmodem. However, instead of
using kermit to upload files I just use zmodem (sz %s) to upload
files to my BBS.
Just in case I forgot to mention, I'm using a tcpip connection to my dos
BBS which is running under os2. I use SIO's vmodem to connect the os2box
to the linuxbox.
It would be nice to have one protocol to use to upload and download files.
I know that none of this stuff is exact. However, it would be nice.
I'm running kermit under Linux 2.0.30. I'm can't seem to determine what
version of zmodem I have with this distribution of linux, but I'm assuming
it's the latest, as this is the latest stable distribution of linux and
zmodem came with it.
Toodles!
