I want't to upload files from windows to freebsd via zmodem. when I drop a file to absolutetelnet window, the pop window says there are 2 packages recieved and 4 sent. But the file didn't to be sent. Only create a empty file in the directory.

Then I try to use menu send - zmodem to send the file. but it doesn't work too. it gives these outputs:
0000000000000000000000000000: not found
It didn't create a empty file this time.There are 1 packages recieved and 1 sent.

Again, I typed "zmrx" in the absolutetelnet window. It gives "0000000000000000000000000000: not found" output. But it doesn't display the text, instead of a hollow block. There are 3 packages recieved and 4 sent.

"zmtx-zmrx" is a ported application in freebsd. It supports zmodem. I've tried lrzsz, but it doesn't work at all.
zmtx-zmrx can be found here:http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports.../zmtx-zmrx/pkg-descr

any help would be fine!

I used ssh2 to connect to freebsd. Public key authorized.
Thx!

I want't to upload files from windows to freebsd via zmodem. when I drop a file to absolutetelnet window, the pop window says there are 2 packages recieved and 4 sent. But the file didn't to be sent. Only create a empty file in the directory.

Then I try to use menu send - zmodem to send the file. but it doesn't work too. it gives these outputs: For starters, let's leave out the drag/drop file transfer and using zmodem send from the menu option. These things may be complicating the issue. To begin with, let's try to initiate the transfer from the UNIX side by using the zmrx command (from the rmtx-zmrx package)

I tried the zmtx-zmrx package you referenced and I cannot get it to work either. It is a twelve year old package and even claims in it's own documentation to have compatibility problems with standard zmodem rz/sz.

The lrzsz package, however, *should* work. If you have it installed, type 'lrz' at the command prompt. This should initiate a transfer and open up the file dialog. Choose the files you want to send and you're done! Lrzsz was derrived from the original rzsz package by Chuck Forsberg and was released under the Gnu GPL. AbsoluteTelnet uses rzsz code license from Chuck as well, and should be highly compatible.

It's possible that you were trying to use drag/drop file transfer with lrzsz and were unable to get it to work. Try it again from the command line 'lrz' and see if it will work that way. Once this works, we'll look again at drag/drop file transfer.

Let me know how your progress goes.

Hello, Brian!
First, sorry for my poor English.
Follow your post, I tried lrzsz again using menu options. But it doesn't work either.
Here is my step:
Change zmodem start text from "rz" to "lrz" in the options.
I select a file when the dialog box appeared, and click open. It gives following outputs:
Aborted.

Then I select menu:Transfer - send - zmodem, select the same file, then click open. It gives follows:
Actually, the reason that I didn't use lrzsz is I read some articles about lrzsz. They said using lrzsz under freebsd made some errors when upload.
I don't know if your can read Chinese. If you can, read this post.

They recommend use zmtx-zmrx and securecrt under freebsd. And I tried it a few days ago. It doesn't work when typing zmrx or lrz command. But it can works using zmrx by selecting menu options. (lrz doesn't work too)

The another question:
How can I use Home and End key in ee editor when terminal type is xterm?

Thanks very much!

I've been doing some compatibility testing with zmtx-zmrx. I've got an update I want you to try.

There were a few things that were causing transfers to abort. Things like getting certain kinds of packets when they weren't expected.

I've tested both sends and receives, including mult-file sends and restart of aborted sends. Give it a try and let me know how it works in your environment (mine is RedHat).

For now, don't try the menu items or the drag/drop. Just type 'zmrx' or 'zmtx <filenames>' at the command prompt.

Hello, Brian!
Thanks for your good job!
I downloaded the RC version of AbsoluteTelnet, and tested upload and download with zmrx/zmtx. It works fine!
But there is a small problem. when I typed zmrx and press Enter, there followed a hollow block. Copy it to Ultraedit, it shows like this:
what does it means?
The menu options and drag/drop doesn't work yet.
