I'm using seyon under 386BSD-0.1+pk0.2.4 and Zmodem 3.18 for Linux (rzsz9202.tar.Z)
to transfer files between my local PC and a remote Sun.  Sending files from the
Sun to the PC works fine, using sz on the Sun and the Zmodem autodetect feature of
Seyon to initiate the transfer.  Sending files from the PC to the Sun doesn't work.
I see some output in the Seyon terminal window to the effect that I should start rz
at the remote end, and I can see some modem traffic happening every once in a while
but no progress is made.

When I initiate a transfer from the PC within Seyon should it send the rz command
to the remote Sun before starting sz on the local end, or do I have to manually
run rz on the Sun end before starting the transfer?  Or should I run sz outside of
Seyon and direct it's output to the modem serial port device?
