Gentlemen,

I recently asked about ZMODEM for FreeBSD. Got a reply and looked at the
ports collection, and installed lrsrz, etc.

Unfortunately, the instructions available are minimal. How does one both
call and then send a file to a remote system using zmodem? I can call the
other system and, using the menu selections on their system, setup the
remote system to receive a file using zmodem... However, then what do I do?
Usually one then starts the zmodem file transfer on the local system. It is
not obvious how to do this.

Issuing the   sz file    command from the $ prompt, or the root prompt, gets
the file transfer started on the local system, but sz by itself does not
appear to know where to send it??? Without a callup to the remote system, sz
just hangs.

Can anyone help?
