Does anyone around here use zssh? it is a 'wrapper' to use ssh so
zmodem file transfers can be done from within an existing ssh
session. I'm trying to run it on my Slackware 12 system with 2.6.21.5
kernel but I keep getting an error saying, "Out of ptys"; it
apparently can't set up a pty/anything to set up a session. Normal
ssh sessions work all the time from this machine so I'm at a loss to
know what is going wrong here.
Anyone have any ideas?

Sounds as if the wrapper has not been updated to take advantage of devfs and
how devfs names pseudo terminals.
Your ssh is probably using the right naming but zssh is not.
Why would you want to do zmodem transfers over an ssh connection? Wouldn't
scp/sftp be more efficient?
TCP is allready end-to-end reliable; you shouldn't need to encapsulate data
in zmodem packets unnecessarily?
you can turn off the escape character for ssh with -e none (check the
manpage) then ssh becomes 8-bit-clean and should work with
zmodem/kermit/whatever.
Regards, Kerry.

The thing I like about using rz/sz to transfer files is you can be in
a session already and say you find a file you want and you want to use
tab completion to spell out the whole file name; then you could use sz
to transfer the file. Otherwise, you have to create a new ssh session
and tab completion won't work with scp to the a remote.
You're probably right about zssh not being current. It looks like the
latest version is 2003.

Well lftp does tab completion but you would still have to connect to the
server from another TTY

The sftp idea sounds interesting. I forgot lftp does support the sftp
protocol.

Hi Steve, not sure this is what you want, but remote filename
autocompletion works with scp if ssh doesn't prompt for a password (e.g.
when using ssh agent). Best regards, Tomas.
