Hi everyone,
I've been playing around with my DOS computer lately and have yet to successfully download a large file (>120kb lol) when connected to an SBBS system via any kind of modem emulating serial port telnet connection. Currently I'm using a Simulant Retro Wifi (computer sees it as a modem but it telnet's to the BBS). Works great for browsing BBSes. Flawlessly in fact. But downloading large files always fails.

X and Ymodem modes will start getting CRC errors. Zmodem fails to start transferring at all. This is with any SBBS system (haven't tried other BBS systems yet).
In a proper ethernet-based telnet session (both DOS via mTCP and Win95 via mTelnet) file transfers work fantastically well. Fast and error free.
I understand SEXYZ is a modern, forward looking implementation of these protocols and I'm looking backwards lol. But I was just wondering if there is a DOS terminal program known to work well with a SEXYZ-based BBS?
Cheers,
Doug

Some Synchronet BBSes have *other* X/Y/ZMODEM protocol drivers
available for users too (e.g. cvs.synchro.net has lsz/rz available for use). Give that a try and see if you get different results. --

What switches for sz are you using if any on Vertrauen?

For ZMODEM send, it's just 'sz %f' for single-file and 'sz %s' for
batch. --

Okay. So my issue is likely the telnet server config.
Can I ask what area my reply has ended up?
When listing Synchronet
Discussion while logged into the BBS (after I uploaded my REP packet
of course) I did not see my reply so I assumed the REP packet did not
get processed (wasn't watching closely during the upload). But my
reply obviously got to you of course.
In MultiMail I just typed R for reply, chose the already highlighted Synchronet (which I assume is the short name for the DOVE-Net echo Synchronet Discussion) and then chose NO to "make this private".
So I would assume that after my REP packet is uploaded and processed
that I should be able to list the Synchronet Discussion echo and see
my reply there?
