I recently got a copy of Agate 0.69 from a local BBS since it has Ymodem
and Zmodem capabilities.  I'm trying to get it to work with our local
Unix (Ultrix actually) box using the program "sb" and "sz".  Kermit 3.87
works fine, but I'm tired of using it, since it's kinda slow.  

I tried normal "sb *" and "sz *" but that doesn't seem to work with
Agate when the files I send are binary.  It works fine, if I try to
send text files.  I try also the "-b" override switch, but same results.

I tried also using a program called Zlink, which specifically mentions
the Unix program "sb" in its documentation, but it still doesn't
work with our local Unix "sb" program.  THere is nothing "between" 
my modem and the Unix box - no switch or whatever that interferes.
Connection is 8 data/1 stop/no parity as usual.

So...anyway, I'm hoping someone can help me.  If anyone can tell
me which "switches" to throw using "sb" or "sz" or the proper
settings that I should use on my GS side, I'd appreciate it.

Setup: ROM1, CTS Fabritek 2424ADH (as per ProTerm config), Port 2 using
cable.  

Thanks a lot.
