I went through a couple of weeks of struggling to get my setup working at the time, and I wrote up a whole document on it, which I just spent some time searching for, but I couldn't find it, I'm sorry to say. I'll check my laptop tomorrow, maybe it's there. I eventually got it all working and was using it under dosemu, a MSDos emulator package under which I ran ProComm which I used to connect to a DEC Alpha running VMS. It worked OK, though I never could get zmodem to work right, and I eventually gave up on it. -- Claude Jones Levit & James, Inc. Leesburg, VA
