(Flames about preserving old :versions when upgrading are not desired -- but deserved.) I have tried :the following versions of "rz": : : #define VERSION "1.14 01-15-87" : #define VERSION "1.26 08-21-87" : #define VERSION "1.29 03-08-88" : :I am totally confused. At one time I had this thing running without a :hitch, but now rz either fails to start up the transfer or it fails :on every packet. My top three hypothesis are: : :(1) Out of the multitude of versions of rz, there is only one : which works with SCO XENIX 286. : :(2) I need to compile it some other way than just "make xenix". Try the /*% line at the beginning of rz.c. This compiles for 286 Xenix regardless of whether the compiler is 286 or 386 Xenix. I normally use the 386 compiled version because it is slightly faster, but I also check the 286 compiled version from time to time, including just now. This testing is under 386 Xenix, I don't run the brain-segmented(;)) version any more. : :(3) My modem line configuration is messed up, and I need to do a : stty before invoking the transfer. What stty commands have been given? I run my serial getty ports at either 7e or 8n. The current released version is always available on TeleGodzilla, but I haven't heard of this particular problem before.
