I've discovered that we're using the Debian Z-modem in the distribution and that there is a more recent version... 0.12b vs 0.11 (in the distribution) Here is a description of new features.... New in lrzsz-0.12b: - lrz: remote command execution is disabled per default. This fixes a major security hole. - lrz now defaults to restricted mode. - lrz has a more restricted mode in which creation of directories and invisible files is not allowed. See lrz.1 for more information. - rz and sz now recognize x- or y-modem-mode even if named lsb or lsx (instead of sb or sx). - timeout code is enabled again, can be turned of with the -O option. - PUBDIR is now optional. configure with --enable-pubdir=/path if you really want a public writeable directory (i don't, so the default is no such directory). - turned to GNU autoconf. - added timesync protocol extension by Peter Mandrella. See timesync.doc and the man pages for more information. - added crash recovery (this is a really simple extension to the receivers file opening code). Both lrz and lsz no have a -r switch to request resume of a former transfer. - many major and minor performance hacks. - new: 8K blocksize (a common extension in the DOS world). Turn on with the -8 option to lsz (lrz handles this automatically). The Debian page for this package is located: http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/comm/lrzsz.html
