This is a known Telix problem that Colin Sampaleanu says he'll fix in v4.0
which should be out next year.  I'm using MS-Kermit as an external protocol
for this problem.  A rotten workaround -- but the only one I could find.
PCKERMIT21 seemed a bit flaky.

V3.12 of Telix won't be fixing this one.  V4.0 should.  I've requested full
server support in V4.0 of Telix -- or at least get, put, fin and bye.

I hope it comes soon.  Telix is my favorite comm program.  This workaround
really stinks -- anyone have a better one?   The machines here run 7-even.
