What is happening to me is that as soon as the xfer gets to block 13 I
get a bunch of complement errors.  That is SunOS (I think) seems to be
sending a Null after a line feed or return.  So the recieveing side
instead of getting the complement of the block number it gets a null.
If the file is smaller than 13 xmodem blocks all is fine.  (there
isn't too many files that small)

        Terminal concentrator???  What is the switch to turn it off??
If by terminal concentrator you me a local network (we have
develent, that is you call up develent and tell it what system you
want to be connected to.)

Thanks..
