I've been using sz and rz for file transfer over the last several
months. It works well, or did, until today. I'm doing dialup on
one of the new Ultrix athena servers, and have noticed that if
I do sz from Athena that the file goes, but at the end of the transfer
something strange happens:
athena% sz pic.file
*z
### Receive (Z) Picture File: 33792 bytes, 2:26 elapsed, 230 cps, 95%
athena% *Load average unavailable
athena% **B0100000027fed4
**B0100000027fed4: No match.
athena%
athena%
The *Load average... and so on is a new addition, and is problematic
because if I use wildcards with sz ("sz *") the transfer dies at this
point.
Thought you folks would want to know,
