I notice a lot of messages from the windows side of my BBS letting me know that sexyz has stopped working during downloads from my BBS. Is there a fix for this or a better client? I do use long file names on some of the files is that a problem for synchronet using sexyz protocol?

No, long filenames should not be any issue for sexyz.

I did more testing and sexyz hangs up on the larger files only. The web side of the bbs handles everything perfectly. Sexyz stops working and stalls out a third of the way through a download on larger files on the telnet. It appears it fails every time on files over 200 mb. Is there a size limit for telnet downloads on sexyz? The biggest file I have uploaded to the bbs on telnet and sexyz was 1.5 go no problems, just cannot download it back from the bbs. Web side of the bbs works beautifully on all downloads of large files.

The only known size limit with SEZYZ is with ZMODEM transfers and files > 2GB in size. Files over 200 MB should be no problem.

x y z through sexyz gives a windows message sexyz has encountered a problem about 1/3 to 1/5 through downloading large files (200mb and up) from the bbs. I can send 'huge' files with zmodem to the BBS uploading to bbs with no problems using sexyz. maybe i need a newer version of sexyz? I am running 3.19b.
Re: sexyz stops working

3.19b is not a version of SEXYZ. The very latest version of SEXYZ is v3.0. Double check your version and upgrade.

I am using sexyz 3.0.
I am running synchronet 3.19b.
I will try reinstalling sexyz from the archive zip.
If that doesn't work i will assume it's a
failure with my setup and try another zmodem program . Thanks for all the help,sometimes things just don't work.

Okay, good. There have have multiple changes since SEXYZ was given the version number 3.0. I suggest you get/use a recent build of SEXYZ v3.0 for Win32.
I am running synchronet 3.19b.
SEXYZ is an external utility, not technically "part of" Synchronet, so the version of SEXYZ is separate from the version of Synchronet that you use/run.
I will try reinstalling sexyz from the archive zip.
You can get the latest build of sexyz.exe for Win32 from a couple of places, one of which is sbbs_dev.zip that's built daily. You know how to find/download that file?
Thanks, I had sexyz 2.0, now I've got 3.0 installed!

How's sexyz 3.0 working for you? I updated my 3.0 with a fresh 3.0 and still have the large files download error.
Uploading was never a problem. Just
downloading fails early to half way through the process. Trying to find other download external to see if problem is consistent.

"fresh 3.0" from where? Like I said, there are multiple revisions that report v3.0. The latest being:
Synchronet External X/Y/ZMODEM v3.0 master/24933c806 Copyright Rob Swindell
Have you tried downloading large files from Vertrauen? vert.synchro.net is running SEXYZ for Win32 and has large files that seem to download via ZMODEM just fine.

No answer to this question? Run "sexyz v" from a command prompt to get the version details.
Yes, several. See the Music/Weedpuller directory for some.
Thank you. You too!

download and upload both worked with a 250MB file. Using EleBBS/Win32 and Netrunner. My system did report that 0 files were transferred, but I'm pretty sure that was because the dszlog environment variable wasn't set.

I will give it a try soon. Thank you. Not feeling so good today. I have not been at computer so much. I extracted version 3.0 sexyz. From the zip for synchronet 3.19b.
I will check the version tomorrow. I have uploaded 2 gb
file to bbs no errors using sexyz in 8k mode and standard zmodem mode. It's just that anything over 30mb in size causes window program to generate a message that says that sexyz has encountered a problem and needs to close.
It does not crash windows or the board, it does leave the caller hanging. As soon as caller closes browser, it recycles and all is ready to go again. It might take some callers 4 or 5 times to get a file downloaded. Zmodem clients remember where the download left off. Thanks for all the help.

I tried to download a weed puller video but didn't have time remaining notice. I tried.

Well, more importantly, you haven't actually changed your revision of sexyz that is crashing in your test case. Please update your revision of sexyz to the lateset and greatest (from sbbs_dev.zip).
If you want to try downloading a large file again from Vertrauen, please do. I'll give you the 'T' exemption, so you should have no time limit now.
