Well, I've heard Nemesis Transfer Protocol kicks ass. I know Merciful Fate is 
lurking around here somewhere. I'm sure he'd most likely be happy to assist 
you if you want to make that the protocol. Rob said there *IS* support for it 
in Synchronet already. So we got one half, may as well throw in the other! 
:-)

From what I understand, NTP uses a whole other port all together. Should be 
ALOT less work and NOT require a fossil.

I've heard it's more stable and faster than FTP or Zmodem. Last I checked 
downloads rocked and uploads were problematic. However, he may have fixed 
that. I haven't been following it closely.
