A couple of weeks ago (actually 6) I posted a request for sz (zmodem
binary) via this newsgroups - and I ended up receiving about 10 different
copies (thanks everyone).  

Well now I run into the problem of aborted zmodem transfers (using any of
the sz files I received) after getting a couple of megs into a file.

I am connecting through an Annex terminal server into the Sparcstation
(via a 2400 baud modem on the Annex).

I call back up and restart zmodem using the -r option, but another couple
of megs later the connection is once again aborted.

On the other hand, kermit will send the entire file (all 11 megs) at a
throughput of 128 cps (while zmodem runs around 220 cps).
