Hello, everyone in this group!!

I have a problem in using X/YMODEM file transfer protocol between my
pc and unix. Since I have no manuals(if they exist) and can only tried
it based on my limited knowledge of this field, I hope someone here could
give me information as regards to these problems.

1. When sending certain files from unix to pc, timeouts were encountered
   repeatedly. Since they all occurred at a given point for any particular
   such files, I suspect that there is a sequence of text in the file
   that caused the protocol to behave differently (i.e, command string).
   Is my guest correct?

2. I had no luck at all in sending files from pc to unix. After I issued
   commands respectively between two systems, they both sat still.
   I used no options in either `rb' or `rx' command at unix side.

I sincerely hope someone could give me pointers as where I can get some
information concerning these protocols. Since I am not a regular reader
of this group, I appologize if such questions have been posted and answered
before. Thanks in advance.
