Auto sending text files from SCO box to a PC via serial cable

I have an SCO system with several PC's hooked up via ProComm and serial cabling (no Ethernet). I want to occasionally transfer a small text file from the UNIX system to a specific PC without the PC operator having to do anything (she may be out to lunch or doing other work during the transfer)

What is a UNIX command (or program) that might do this transfer? (I assume we can use cron to run this command or program every few minutes).
