rz&sz command for linux

avatar

i'm using RDM 4.6.0.0, i can connect to linux server by using ssh shell, it works fine.
but when i try to transfer data between my desktop and linux server by using rz & sz command,
RDM does not show up the UI, linux shell shows this: ▒**B00000000000000,
these command works fine with xshell, so it seems not the server side problem,
please help me on this problem,
thanks in advance.

Hello,

I would need to verify this with Denis, one of our engineer, but our office is closed today.

We will get back to you tomorrow or wednesday on this. Sorry for the delay.

Best regards,

Hi,

I am not familiar with sz and rz. I've tried those commands in the apple terminal and could not get anything else than what you get in RDM. I will need more information on how you're using those commands in your scenario. Right now, I am guessing rz and sz rely on environment variables that are automatically set in shell.

Regards!

you could try these commands with securecrt for mac instead of terminal, this will work fine.

Hi,

I've made some research and I now understand that the rz&sz commands require that the client supports the zmodem protocol. SecureCRT and xshell do have support for this protocol, but the standard mac Terminal and ours do not. Therefore, I will add this to our feature request list.

Regards!

Hi Devolutions team,

Another vote for this feature too, as well as drag and drop to upload files from the client.
Thank you.
