"I finally put a RS232 data monitor on the line, and discovered the Mac was apparently dropping a character out of file information block. Fortunately the fix was simple, just add a sleep before the info block is sent: if (send_sync() == ACK) { /* ~ line 165 */ txtmode = 0; sleep(1); /* added to make sure info block is recieved */ send_file(files.f_info, 1); After adding the sleep call there's been no further problems." Thanks, John. (I haven't had a chance to try this out personally yet.) I resent this because I got a lot of queries about it. - Mike
