 If you are reading this let it be known I telnetted to CHOWDA Net and
 uploaded this with Zmodem.

 Like I have mentioned before the use of Zmodem when telnetting depends
 on the cooperation of the telnet client with the file transfer
 protocols. The telnet client must work with the transfer protocols
 whether it be Zmodem or Kermit or other protocols.  Craigs board has
 been working fine for me using a telnett connection and Zmodem.  Until
 I got this telnet client I had troubles with getting Zmodem uploads to
 work. As you mentioned dialup worked fine this indicates that it is not
 on Craigs end but on your end.

 Now another problem has jumped in to harass me.  Some time after the
 first of the year my Zmodem downloads from all BBS's (be they BWave or
 QWK) are not dated correctly.  At first I thought maybe a setting or a
 file with my telnet client got grungded, but I had a copy on another
 computer and it behaves the same way, so there must be a date problem
 that run out.  Oh well so is life.

 I know that you are a DOS person, but I do windows as there were a lot
 of thing I could not get software in DOS for.  But I still do a lot of
 things in DOS and I have close to a hundred batch files that do a lot
 of work for me to this day.  A lot of my applications (even Win apps)
 are run from within a batch file that allows me to do what I call house
 keeping either before or after the application.
