zm may or may not be plagerized in some way, it's not my place to say.
rzsz is a licensed product only freely useable if used with Omen Systems or
you must pay for it.
So I don't have to worry about the battle over zm and the licensing charges
for rzsz, is there a zmodem implementation for Unix that is freely
available or doesn't have the tight restrictions on usage rzsz does? This
is for about 130 DECstations in a higher education environment.
I can't see paying money for students to download homework/ftp'ed files
from the system using rzsz and I don't want the school to be in legal
jeopardy by using zm which may be violating a copyright.
Is there any zmodem safe ground?
