Error description

• A DCM package received on a windows server, sent from a Synergy
  server on unix,  is not visible if the DCM info file is a
  windows text format
  
  
  To reproduce:
  -On a Synergy server on  Unix/linux, create a DCM package.
  -Send it to a Synergy server on Windows.
  -In the DCM Receive window, the DCM package should be visible.
  
  
  Some tools, used to transfer files from Unix to Windows,
  automatically
  convert the text files from Unix text format to Windows Text
  format.
  (winscp for example)
  
  
  If the DCM info file has been converted to a Windows text format
  during
  such a transfer, then the DCM  package is not visible in the DCM
  Receive  dialog.
  
  
  If you run 'dos2unix' on the DCM info file, then the DCM package
  is visible again in the DCM receive dialog on the Windows
  server.
  
  
  =? The DCM package on windows should be visible, whatever the
  format of the DCM info file.
