Art,
Use kermit. The package is ckermit under debian, don't know about other
dists. It's available from Columbia Uni or something, e.g. whereever it
originates. Searching for it via google or freshmeat should lead you to
the right place.
Kermit's what I've been using for serial communications for years.
ciao,
