Sorry, been noticing a few bugs recently. Today's is apparently a rarely used file transfer that is still looking for a modem.
No debug option for vstudio, but ignoring the error allowed a clean exit.

I was testing if fTelnet/htmlTerm's Ymodem-G works as advertised. Sorry.

You likely need to run a DOS virtual modem (like netfoss) to get fdsz to work, or just remove that protocol option from your BBS, it was likely there since 4.3x days (or earlier)

5.x doesn't add any protocol calling fdsz
