Small files transfer properly but as soon as the communications software encounters a certain block number in bigger files it issues an error and quits: 11:24pm /u2/mnop/mpanek/simtel->cat xmodem.errs xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of locate.arc properly Terminated. xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of cache.arc properly Terminated. xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of gmovie.arc properly Terminated. xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of frac.arc properly Terminated. xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of boot.arc properly Terminated. Can someone tell me what might be the problem. I haven't a clue. Thanks, Michael -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Michael Panek |\ /| | |\\\ | | //|\\ /~:~\ mpanek@polyslo.calpoly.edu | | | | | | | | | |: :| Let's interface! | | | |/// | | | \___/
