Use /dev/cuaa2! Thankyou for pointing this out! As it turned out, I noticed that the examples in /etc/remote and the example u provided me both used /dev/cuaa-what-have-u and i was using /dev/ttyd2. I could not see why that should make any difference, but i decided to give it a whirl. This turned out to be a good idea :-) So now i am typing this via tip. Yay! sz/rz still wont work. BOO! This is really perplexing. I type sz filename on the remote end and rz on my end and end up with rz printing it's " this is meant to work with comm programs not to be called by one " error message. I wonder if the problem is with rz/sz? i could not get the patch-ab file to patch the sz/rz 3.36 src. And i could not find a binary distribution. Do any of u have anything to report about where u got or compiled your sz/rz?. I think i will try ache's brute force technique and see if that does it.... > -- > Sean Kelly > NOAA Forecast Systems Lab, Boulder Colorado USA ******************************************************************************* John Utz spaz@stein.u.washington.edu idiocy is the impulse function in the convolution of life
