Hi,

I am copying some files from my linux PC to a handset having linux
installed. This I am doing using minicom. I also get a shell prompt on
the handset via minicom terminal and can browse the directories on the
handset. Is it possible to copy files from the handset to the PC. What
are the prerequisite for any system to support uploading the files via
serial port? I am able to run the sz command on the handset but I get
the error "Got ZCAN". Any way in which I can copy files from the
handset to my PC using serial communication.

Thanks and cheers,

~Ajit
