	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....
