Well Jeff I am sure this is helpful, but none of these will work for me:

As I said: I am a PC guy, not MAC next:

I am not quite sure what MUG! is, A utility of some kind I assume. next:

Jeff Speaking as a new (re)convert to the II world who through LOTS of effort
finally got ADT to work, and it seems the easiest means I have so far found
for transfer, and as I have yet to get ANY of the other things to work
consistently, that is why my suggestion.
Null modem is so far my ONLY option and NONE of the // dial up packages seem
to work (I cannot find a zmodem protocol, and none of the kermit/xmodem ones
work).
I am just tryin to figgure this thingy out.........
