Well, yes.  Before telnet, I was able to do zmodem transfers both ways
no problem.  That was dial-up, and yes, pure DOS...  I STILL am not
using any form of Windows for my bbsing, and now have to do it all via
telnet.  It was the *combination* of factors - purely DOS, telnet, and
zmodem uploads - that no longer worked.  With the new TNPORT to connect
Conex to the bbs, I now AM able to again* do zmodem uploads, in telnet,
like I used to do all the time for dial-up.
