2633.0. "RZ / SZ, Vax to Vax ??" by HPSCAD::GATULIS (Frank Gatulis) Fri Jun 09 1989 12:58

    Don't know if there's a better place to ask this so -
    
    I use ZMODEM all the time going between work and my AMIGA.
    My question is - Is there a way to use the RZ SZ pair to 
    accomplish a ZMODEM transfer between 2 VAX.
    
    This is for someone else who has a Microvax at home and would
    like something better than Kermit for his file transfres. Any
    other suggestions that have been tried?
    
    Thanks
    Frank

2633.1Can be done...FRUST::KRAMERMurphy was an optimist..Mon Jun 12 1989 07:5810
Maybe it's not the most elegant solution - but it worked for me:

in VVMODEM.C change the variable tt_name[] from "TT" to the terminal name
from where you initiate the connection on your host (lets say "TXA2"),
recompile and relink RZ / SZ (see RZ.C /SZ.C for how to do that).

Connect to Remote using Kermit or SET HOS/DTE, start there the RZ/SZ,
escape back to host and fire up the modified SZ/RZ.
