I've been trying to perform Telnet Zmodem transfers.  So far everthing
is working well receiving a file from the host.  However, if send a file,
rz doesn't work without the -e option (escape control characters).  Upon
investigation, NetBSD is translating the CR-LF of anything.  This seems 
rather strange considering I put Telnet into Binary mode (via the Telnet
option negotiation) before sending the file.  So how do I tell Telnet not
to do this translation?  Is there another Telnet option I'm missing?

While I'm at it, is there a standard document that outlines all of the
Telnet negotiations? 

Misc: I'm in the default character by character mode, the host is a
NetBSD 0.9 UNIX box.

thanks for any help that can be giving,
John Maier
