The 4.2bsd tftp implementation apparently doesn't properly
handle "new lines" in netascii mode; ie, it just moves blocks
of uninterpreted data, no different than octet mode.  That's
fine between similar systems, but failed between a pc and our
vax.  The tftp rfc refers to the ascii modifications in the
telnet rfc; ie, "new lines" should be converted to 
when sent and  should be converted to "new lines" when
received.   should be converted to  when when sent
and  should be converted to  when received.  So,
has anyone fixed(?) the 4.2bsd tftp?

Thanks,
