I've put C-Kermit on a VAX running VMS, to replace Kermit-32,
and I want to write a simple script to login to a unix box, and
transfer a file.

So I define CKERMIT as a foreign command and I go:
$ CKERMIT

C-Kermit>set line ker$comm
C-Kermit>out \13
C-Kermit>input 5 login:
C-Kermit>out username\13
C-Kermit>input 5 Password:
C-Kermit>out secret\13
C-Kermit>input 5 $
C-Kermit>out ckermit -x\13
C-Kermit>send myfile.dat
C-Kermit>finish
C-Kermit>out exit\13

and that works fine.

so I put the above lines in a file - XFILE.INI
set line ker$comm
out \13
input 5 login:
out username\13
input 5 Password:
out secret\13
input 5 $
out ckermit -x\13
send myfile.dat
finish
out exit\13

and I go:
$ CKERMIT
C-Kermit>take XFILE.ini

and it falls over - it doesn't seem to want to OUTPUT anything
and I get "invalid password" messages.

Am I doing anything wrong ????

   Has anyone ever come across a malevolent string?
I don't think anyone who uses kermit would do such a thing
but there are people who don't use kermit.
  
  Could there ever be another option  "private" as well as 
on, off and unchecked, that would allow the first command to
be a user specified string - a password.  Unchecked would
would include "private".  That is, if a "password" string were
set: unchecked would bypass the first command (the password)
within the string if it matched the password and execute it
if it didn't, and private would execute the string only if
the password were matched.

    ON would allow "private" but maintain protection for APC
strings that didn't contain the password: if password were set
then any APC string that had the password as its first command
would allow possibly destructive commands e.g. run commands.
If the string didn't possess the password only safe commands would
be allowed. 
 

  This last option would protect against harmful strings aimed
at a large target and allow groups of users to benifit
from automated safe commands, while still allowing the individual
user to automate interactions between local and remote machines,
without keeping track of, and changing the APC status.


 Actually it never bothered me until I posted an APC string
to a local test newsgroup and viewed it using tin. Well
what happened is what I knew would happen but it
startled me just the same.

                                        
                                               Thanks

Well, I seem (at first blush) to have gotten around the problem I 
mentioned last time, about dropped connections.  My ISP has 
installed a rack of digital modems which seem much better able to 
hold a connection.  Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I installed a test 
version of C-Kermit 5A(190), as my ISP's tech support folks did 
later.  As a stopgap, File Transfer Recovery seems to work quite 
well .. though re-establishing a connection once it is severed still 
makes this a matter which is problematic for unattended downloads.  

Still, if the digital modems perform as they seem to be doing so far, 
"paid" may have been put to this particular problem.  

But this brings up another issue .. the status of my local telco's 
lines.  They are now a matter for suspicion.  

I found nothing in the C-Kermit book, or in Kermit News, about a way 
to use Kermit to troubleshoot lines.  Something like a log of line 
problems, or a "line integrity check" mode that would bounce packets 
back and forth across the chosen transmission line, and keep records 
of the lossage and symptoms.  

Is this extant but undocumented ?  Planned ?  Not planned ?  Or has 
it been in the docs all the time, but merely evaded my eye ?  

It would seem to be a useful feature.  Especially for a program that 
does not have to fit inside the MESS-LOSS straitjacket.  And given 
the .. how shall I say it ?? .. "less than perfect" record of local 
telcos in dealing with line problems.  

Thanks in advance.

In the days of 300/1200/2400 baud modems without error correction,
the scheme you are proposing could be worthwhile.  But with modern
error correcting modems, there are so many layers buffering
the data between both ends that a determination of line
quality by observing the data to/from the modem can be very, 
very difficult.  The connection tends to either work or drop.
And when the connection drops, I find that the cause is more likely
a bug in the modem's firmware or a negotiation incompatibility
between the two modems - though certainly marginal line conditions can
make things worse.

Most modems today can be told to disable error
correction and compression, and this would be the place to
start doing what you propose.  It would also be wise to figure
out how to "lock" both modems into some specific rate before
performing such tests.

On the other hand, many of the best modems available today can
report error/retry statistics through AT-style command packets.
Some of the really top notch external modems have LCD displays
on the front that display such information.  Needless to say,
you won't find any of these features on RPI modems...

You posted this same question about a week ago and I answered it, right?
Once again: try inserting "sleep 1" after "input 5 Password:" and before
"out secret\13".

For a fuller explanation, see the earlier posting, or the manual, "Using
C-Kermit".

The balance between security and convenience is a delicate one, especially
in an inherently insecure environment like a terminal session, and even
more especially when the underlying OS (such as DOS) lacks the very concept
of security.  No matter where you look, there are pitfalls -- sending
passwords in the clear, sending passwords over an un-error-corrected channel,
and so on.  It is definitely an area that needs a lot of attention; we know
that the APC mechanism is not a perfect solution and we are looking into
alternatives, but the results will probably not be visible for some time
to come.

It would be nice to have, of course, but depends entirely on direct access
to the UART -- otherwise the device driver hides this info from us -- framing
errors and the like.  Only in MS-DOS Kermit do we have direct access to the
UART, and then only when running directly in DOS, not in a Windows window.

Conceivably we could build in a bit-error-rate tester, but it would be of
limited usefulness.  As Tim Shoppa pointed out, the modems themselves hide
the problems, unless you are using non-error-correcting model.

One can turn a PC into a BER tester only when one has total confidence in
the PC's hardware and configuration; certainly not when the software can be
installed on any misconfigured or substandard PC -- e.g. one with
non-buffered UART and/or interrupt conflicts and/or memory conflicts, etc.

In short, when bad data arrives, it does not carry a history of how it got
that way: not just line noise, but also buffer overruns, lack of effective
flow control, interrupt conflicts, loose connectors or wires, loose boards
in the PC, lack of transparency in any of the intervening equipment, modem
bugs (see comp.dcom.modems), other problems in the intervening equipment
(think of terminal servers): overloading, bugs, misconfiguration, etc.  Not
so long ago, a popular brand of terminal server had a bug that caused it to
swap bytes when its load became high.

That's why companies that make test equipment get the big bucks.  It's
highly specialized gear.

Back to recovery.  Here's an MS-DOS Kermit script published in Kermit News

Actually, I don't know why I said "full" Tek graphics.  I would be happy with
the 4010 (?) emulation in MSDOS Kermit.

K95 1.17 seems to overwrite files downloaded with ZMODEM even when
I have the dialer set to rename on filename conflicts.  Is this a
known problem or am I doing something wrong?

This is to announce the final Beta test edit of C-Kermit 6.0.192 for
UNIX, VMS, and AOS/VS, hopefully to be joined by several other operating
systems along the way.  The previous general release of C-Kermit was
5A(190) in October 1994.  The previous 6.0 Beta test, 6.0.192 Beta.029,
was announced on August 23.  The changes since version 5A(190) are listed
in the accumulated Beta announcements in the MAIL.TXT file (see below).

This is Beta.030.  The changes since Beta.029 are minimal:

 . New command-line option -B to force background (batch) mode.
 . New \fbasename(filespec) function.
 . PRINT command now allows trailing print options.
 . Numerous "make the compiler happy" changes.
 . READ from OPEN !READ (process) fixed.
 . File transfer display now shows byte count if percent unknown.
 . { ENABLE, DISABLE } <feature> [ { REMOTE, LOCAL, BOTH } ]
 . SET DIAL CONNECT { OFF, { { ON, AUTO } [ { VEBOSE, QUIET } ] } }
 . SWITCH command fixed to work with macro arguments.
 . \ is no longer a line continuation character.
 . INPUT -1 blah now waits forever for "blah".
 . New "all-in-1" VMS build procedure, CKVKER.COM.
 . REMOTE TYPE VMS-to-VMS no longer sends a labeled-format file.
 . Numerous VMS-specific bugs fixed.
 . Various help texts updated.

   Data General MV 2500/DC AOS/VS II 2.20.00.39 + TCP/IP

Thanks to all of you who tested the last Beta and sent in reports.  Special
thanks to Martin Zinser of the Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung GSI,
Darmstadt, and Joellen Windsor of the University of Arizona for the new VMS
build procedure, and (again) to Peter Eichhorn for detailed and exhaustive
tests (and quite a few excellent suggestions), and as always to Jeff Altman.

Here are some notes about specific versions:

THE MACINTOSH VERSION
  Nothing new.  My Mac died so I can't even compile it any more.  Nobody
  else has exhibited any interest in working on Mac Kermit, so unless things
  take a radical and unexpected turn, Mac Kermit is a relic.

THE VMS VERSION
  Built on VAX with Multinet and UCX, and on Alpha with Multinet (and of
  course on both with no network support at all).  Binaries needed for
  Alpha/UCX as well as for Wollongong, TCPware, CMU/Tek, etc -- everything
  but Multinet.

THE AOS/VS VERSION
  I can still build it myself for AOS/VS-II (but probably not for too much
  longer -- the old MV disk is starting to crumble), but this version does
  not work on AOS/VS Classic, and some people have been asking for it.
  Somebody with an AOS/VS Classic system with the DG C compiler and linker
  needs to build it and make the binary available.

THE OS-9 VERSION
  We now have a 68000 binary for the OS-9 version of Beta.029:
  kermit/test/bin/ck9ker.exe, dated 2 Sep 96; hopefully the Beta.030 binary
  will appear shortly.  Still no news on OS-9000.

THE AMIGA VERSION
  from the previous Beta is in kermit/test/bin/ckiker.exe dated 16 Sep 96.

WHERE TO GET IT (the regular place):

Quick access for Web users:
  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit
    Follow the "What's New" link (reload if necessary).

The new test version is available via anonymous ftp from:

  kermit.columbia.edu

in the kermit/test directory tree:

kermit/test/text/
  Contains individual source files, documentation files, makefiles, etc;
  ftp in text mode.  The general formula for getting all the files you need
  for a particular version is:

    text
    prompt
    mget ck[cuw]*.[cwh] ck?*.* 

  (where ? = v for VMS, m for Macintosh, 9 for OS-9, etc)

kermit/test/tar/
  The complete UNIX sources, makefile, and documentation files as compressed
  tar archives: cku192.tar.Z (uncompress) and cku192.tar.gz (gunzip)

kermit/test/bin/
  Individual binaries, all of them used to transfer themselves (in binary
  mode, of course :-)  ftp them in binary mode.  The READ.ME file in this
  directory explains what is what (text mode for this file only).  NOTE:
  The VMS versions now have long descriptive names showing the hardware
  (A or V), VMS version, C compiler and version, and TCP/IP product and
  version.  The rest of the missing VMS binaries are needed.

kermit/test/vms
  Contains the VMS C-Kermit sources in convenient BACKUP saveset format,
  hexified using CKVHEX.MAR, dehexifiable with CKVDEH.MAR, both also in
  the same directory.

As always, the primary documentation for C-Kermit is the book "Using
C-Kermit", supplemented by the following files, in kermit/test/text/:

  MAIL.TXT    -- announcements
  ckcker.upd  -- documentation for new features.
  dialing.doc -- new dialing features
  modems.doc  -- new modem support and features
  ckuker.nr   -- UNIX man page
  ck?ker.bwr  -- "beware" file for ?=u (UNIX), v (VMS), etc.
  ck?ins.doc  -- installation instructions for u (UNIX), v (VMS), etc.
  ckccfg.doc  -- configuration options
  ckcplm.doc  -- program logic manual

Reports of all kinds -- good, bad -- are most welcome; please send them
straight to me:

  fdc@columbia.edu

BINARIES NEEDED

Binaries for this final Beta version that are not already present -- for
DG/UX, Solaris/Intel, Solaris/PowerPC, VMS with other TCP/IP products,
whatever you have -- are needed.  This is the last chance before the final
release to discover if you *can* make a binary for your platform.

If you can make a binary please send email to me at fdc@columbia.edu and
make arrangements to upload it.  If you tried and failed to build this
version, also send me mail so we can work out the kinks.  Alternatively, I'm
more than happy to do it myself if I can get Telnet and FTP access to an
appropriate development platform.

Watch the comp.protocols.kermit.misc newsgroup for further announcements.

Thanks!

Not that I know about.  Use this newsgroup, or send e-mail to

I'll contact you directly about licensing.

Sixel was originally intended as a way to send images to dot-matrix printers
like the LA50.  It is also supported by the VT340 and up.  The only Kermit
program that supports it, presently, is MS-DOS Kermit.  OS/2 C-Kermit can't
do it because it is a console mode application, which is not allowed to
use graphics.  Ditto for Kermit 95.

I understand how to use the initialization code M0 to silence my modem. 
That's not the question. I have been using M3 only with my 
settings for Netcom, my Internet Service Provider, because I want to hear 
if I'm getting a busy signal or no pickup; then I can redial immediately. 
 For all dialups through Kermit, I have an init string in the 
K95CUSTOM.INI file that includes M0 for silence.  Unfortunately, after 
increasing the modem speed recently in Netcom, I find that Kermit is 
ignoring its K95CUSTOM.INI M0 setting and I'm hearing the modem when 
dialing all of my Kermit entries.  Why should this work before and not 
work now?  I have the reset code F1 in both setups so the modem should 
initialize and reset.  I placed an echo line in the K95CUSTOM.INI file 
so I know that Kermit is reading it.  My modem is a US Robotics 
Sportster 28.8.  As far as I can tell, the Windows modem setup has no 
effect on anything.  Any ideas?

Correct.  Unfortunately, the TAPI configuration is still inaccessible to
Kermit 95.  This is high on our action list, but probably can't be
except by conversion to full GUI, which is well underway.

: Any ideas?
:
Did you read the DOCS\MODEMS.DOC file?  Are you using the Dialer?  Or are
you using K95 bare?  Are you sure that K95.EXE is reading your
K95CUSTOM.INI file -- e.g. that isn't misplaced?

Use "set dial display on" to check that Kermit is really sending the
intended init string to your modem, and look to see what the modem's
responses are.  Hint: remember that in version 1.1.7 you can scroll back
the command screen, and you can copy and paste arbitrary amounts of
material -- including the entire modem dialing dialog.

If the source of the trouble is not obvious, we can solve this problem for
you if you send us copies of K95CUSTOM.INI and a copy of the modem dialog.

	MS-DOS Kermit does the Sixel stuff. As the name says, it is a DOS
program. Whether one has difficulties doing graphics in an OS/2 DOS box
is not remembered here, but you can give it a try. It will do graphics in 
a DOS window of Windows but when reverting to text mode Windows complains
and recommends running it in a full screen DOS box.
	The older cryptic graphics feature list is text file msvibm.vt,
found in directory kermit/a on kermit.columbia.edu. There is lots of graphics
support in MSK in addition to Sixel. Data General terminal users can obtain
extensive support for DG graphics via terminal kinds D463 (mono) and D470 
(color). There is Tek 4010 extended, plus enough other material to operate
Word Perfect from VMS and Unix machines to a DOS client.
	To use Sixel graphics be a VT320 terminal, and control the graphics
screen resolution with SET TERM GRAPHICS <choice>.
	Please see kermit/msdos, binary file msvibm.zip, for the current
release v3.14. V3.15 is in beta test.

	Oops. File msvibm.vt is the text mode cryptic list. The graphics
file is msvibm.tek, and we seem to have let that disappear through a crack
over time. If there is sufficient interest it can be resurrected.

I am using kermit on Sun/SunOS with a terminal server.
I issue the following command:

set host host1 port1

which sets the host to host1 and service port1. How do I specify the
password for host1?
Is there a better way to use the terminal server?

Thanks.

Maybe someone here can make some suggestions?

A friend at work uses a screen reader (IBM Voice type dictation, I
think) and has the need to connect to a Stratus VOS system at work.
He connects to the company network with PPP and then telnets to the
appropriate system.  The problem lies with the fact that he also needs
dead solid keyboard mapping, for which I recommended C-Kermit.  The
result is that the keyboard works fine but his screen reader starts
at the top of the screen each time a character is written to the
screen.  This slows down his work greatly.

By the way he is using OS/2 3.0 Warp Connect.

Any ideas and or suggestions on where to go from here.

So in other words, you want to dial out from the terminal server?

If the terminal server prompts you for a password, you can (a) CONNECT
and type the password, or (b) write a simple script program to do it.

If some other mechanism is required for furnishing the password to the
terminal server, I would need to know what it is.

Well, while you may mean that it isn't practical, it certainly is possible.
After all, the port of the XFree86 servers to OS/2 is a console mode
application and it most certainly does use graphics...

But, I agree with the basic point that it would require major changes to
OS/2 kermit and is in no way worth it.

Is there any plans to have Kermit run with VLMs in Netware
environment?  We are trying to migrate to Kermit, but because Netware
4.x is part of our network, we have to address this issue.  

Is Kermit ever going to run with VLMs?

Followup-To: comp.protocols.kermit.misc
Date: 18 Oct 1996 20:58:57 GMT

Lines: 67
Message-ID: <548r2h$m3l@apakabar.cc.columbia.edu>

There is a new version of Kermit-370 ready for testing, available in all
variants (CMS, TSO, MUSIC, ROSCOE, and CICS).  The changes since 4.3.1
are relatively compact and will be found in the Kermit distribution in
the ik*ker.nup files.  These are the usual supplements to ik*ker.upd for
"not yet official" changes.  (The .upd files contain all changes from
4.3.0 to 4.3.1.).  Installation of the test version requires the
complete set of base source files, plus .upd and .nup.  The files are
available at watsun.cc.columbia.edu via anonymous FTP from the kermit/b
directory -- to get the complete distribution, fetch ik0* (eye kay zero)
and ik?* (where "?" is "c" for CMS, "t" for TSO, "m" for MUSIC, or "x"
for CICS).  For ROSCOE, you need both ikt* and ikr*.  As always, the
instructions for installation are found in ik*ker.ins and ik*ker.bwr.
 
Highlights of the new version:
 
1. Two obscure bugs in the RESEND facility were cured last year, and the
   fixes were made available in IKCKER NUP.  These are still included
   and have been propagated to the other variants as well.
 
2. The new REGET command was implemented (works like GET, but makes the
   server do a RESEND of the requested file).
 
3. Kermit now suppresses the "doubled" transmission of a file that can
   sometimes occur on a flaky connection.
 
4. Kermit now announces its system type to the other Kermit during the
   initial negotiations.  A soon-to-be-released version of the micro
   Kermits will add this to the transfer display.
 
5. Kermit-CMS has also been modified to take advantage of another
   imminent upgrade to micro Kermits -- it will be possible to issue
   a SEND or GET to the mainframe Kermit, and the micro will
   automatically pop from terminal emulation into transfer mode and
   then revert to emulation as soon as the transfer is done.
 
6. It is again possible to set the Kermit "working directory" to a PDS
   under TSO.
 
7. Last, but not least, Kermit-370 has been updated to handle dates
   properly after 1999.  The situation was different for each variant.
 
   Kermit-CMS has been updated to take action on the recently announced
   changes to CMS for supporting file dates after 1999.  There are two
   parts: Kermit recognizes when a file to be sent needs a leading "20"
   and sends the correct time tag to the other Kermit (actually, this
   part was already in place for dates up through 2049), and Kermit also
   sets the correct time tag for a received file as well.
   Unfortunately, the 2nd part operates only when Kermit is installed
   *without* SFS support (because SFS has not been upgraded to handle
   4-digit years, as far as I know).  I have already verified
   empirically that year-2000 support in Kermit is compatible with an
   existing version of CMS here (Rel 7) by creating a file dated
   2019/7/19 and sending it with Kermit.
 
   Kermit-TSO was changed to support the existing provisions for 2000+
   dates in MVS/TSO.  (The ROSCOE variant remains basically the same as
   the TSO variant, with just a few changes.)
 
   Kermit-MUSIC already supported year-2000 dates fully.
 
   CICS doesn't really have a file system, so dates are normally not
   used.  However, Kermit-CICS maintains its own built-in file
   directories with provision for time tags fully compatible with 2000+
   dates.

Many Kermit 95 users have been asking for SOCKS firewall support,
but we figured it would be better to wait for a product that provides
this capability to the Windows 95 or NT system as a whole, rather
than to just one application.

It looks as though such an application is now available; it is the
new 32-bit version of SocksCap, which sits between Windows Sockets
(WinSock) and the application (Kermit 95, Netscape, etc).  Its authors
have tested it successfully with 32-bit Microsoft WinSock on both
Windows 95 and NT using many different applications (but not yet
Kermit 95).  It should work with SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 servers.

You can find SocksCap at:

  http://www.socks.nec.com/sockscap.html

or:

  ftp://ftp.nec.com/pub/socks/sockscap/

Quoting: "The software is freely available via anonymous ftp and the
SOCKS Web site and is NOT in the public domain.  Use and distribution is
restricted and subject to certain agreements.  The full copyright and
restrictions can be found in the file named "COPYRIGH" in the
distribution zip file."  Which says, among other things "You may use this
software for non-commercial purposes only, such as academic, research and
internal business use."

If you're a Kermit 95 user who needs to negotiate SOCKS firewalls, please
download and try this out.  Unzip the ZIP file and read the README file
for instructions.  Since there is (are?) no SOCKS here, I'm not easily
able to test it.  Please report back to kermit@columbia.edu.  Thanks.

I currently use ReachOut to access a Novell Network by telephone
and modem. I see there are other products like ReachOut called
"PC Anywhere" and MicroSoft's "Remote Access". The problem is you have to
have the same software running on both sides - there is no standard.
Sounds like a job for the wonderful standard-setting folks at CUCCA!

The people who have cornered the market in "remote access" software are
welcome to it.  It is hideously complex and fragile.  In most cases, it
requires that the two communicants be using the same remote access software,
ON THE SAME PLATFORM.  The communication methods are necessarily OS and
hardware-specific (and by "hardware", I mean not just CPU, etc, but also
keyboard, video adapter, memory management, you name it).  As hardware
changes on a daily basis in the PC marketplace, you'd need an army of
programmers and tech support personnel to keep up.

Our business is open communication among all platforms.  That is also the
business (by the way) of TCP/IP.

------------
	Perhaps a rereading of the distribution documentation with MS-DOS 
Kermit will clarify the matter, presuming that you are referring to MS-DOS 
Kermit rather than the commercial Kermit95.
	Let me summarize: VLMs are Novell NetWare components only, which
run over IPXODI which in turn uses ODI as a packet handler. MS-DOS Kermit has
its own internal TCP/IP stack which can run over ODI as a packet handler, 
in parallel with IPXODI. There is no connection whatsoever between VLMs and
Kermit, nor need there be any. Kermit does not use IPXODI either; it runs
along side it.
	You may run VLMs with NDS.VLM, and/or BIND.VLM, as you choose. Kermit
neither knows nor cares. MS-DOS Kermit runs just fine this way with NW 3.12 
through NetWare 4.11 as the file servers, because I do just that.
	Please review the distribution documentation, particularly the section
dealing with NET.CFG.
	Now, if you are referring to Kermit95 then you need a compliant
Windows TCP/IP protocol stack and winsock interface. Please see the Kermit95
specifications on kermit.columbia.edu for more details. Keep in mind that
LSL.COM is a 16-bit real mode affair, and it is used because VLMs require
IPXODI.COM which in turn requires LSL.COM and associated lan driver; note 
all those .COM extensions.

You have to use the proper device name for serial port A.

It might be /dev/cua, /dev/cua0, or dev/cua/a.  (Try the last one
first.)  For other hints, look in your Solaris manuals, man pages,
or in the /dev directory.

Kermit 95, C-Kermit, and MS-DOS Kermit all have script programming languages
that make it easy to dial pagers.  Alpha pagers are a bit harder than
numeric pagers or simple beepers, but the forthcoming releases:

  MS-DOS Kermit 3.15

will have new features for dialing Alpha pagers too.

Strange problem with old S/W written in DEC-TDMS on VAX using
VT-320 terminal emulation.  The first screen requires a Carriage
Return.  Well, it just hangs and does nothing.  BUT, if you do Alt-X
then C to reconnect, then everything works fine until you exit the
VAX program.  When you restart that one program, it hangs again,
but the same "fix" works.  Just this one VAX program has the 
problem.  I have tried changing many things, but nothing seems 
to help.  (By the way, QVT works just fine with this VAX program.)

Anybody have any ideas?

One quick suggestion -- if you did not tell K95 to "set terminal byte 8",
please do that and see if it makes the problem go away.  If not...

Please send us a session log so we can figure out what's happening.
Tell K95 to "log session", then CONNECT to the VAX and start your
"killer app", escape back with Alt-X, CONNECT again (to unstick it),
do a couple things, exit from the application, escape back to K95
again, tell it to "close session", and then email the SESSION.LOG
file to kermit@columbia.edu, uuencoded to 

Also please specify which version of Kermit 95 you are using and any
other relevant details -- type of connection, "show terminal" settings,
and so on.

I use Columbia Kermit 3.14 as a external protocol to ProComm for DOS. 
Kermit does not have a script for the above modem; so I use the script for
the Zoom 14.4 modem -- (In the .ini file, I have "set modem zoom").  Is
that the reason why I am only get a file transfer speed of 1,200 to 2,000
bytes/sec -- out of a possible of 3,600 bytes for a 28.8 modem ????

How can I increase the transfer speed? 

TIA

/var/lock is where they are supposed to go according to the Linux File System
Standard, but that didn't come until after early Linux releases had already
started using /var/spool/uucp.  C-Kermit 5A(190) uses the latter by default.
To make it use the former, do this:

  make clean
  make linux KFLAGS=-DLINUXFSSTND

C-Kermit 6.0 (now in Beta) uses the newer convention by default.

Hi,

I am a heavy user of ckermit running on a Sparc 5 with SunOS 4.1.4.  I 
use ckermit with direct serial connections to embedded systems I am 
programming.  The problem I have appears when using both 
C-Kermit 5A(190), 4 Oct 94, for SunOS 4.1 (BSD)
    and
C-Kermit 6.0.192 Beta.029, 21 Aug 96, for SunOS 4.1 (BSD)



Here's the scenario:
I fire up ckermit with the -y parameter pointing to a file will the following
commands:
	set line /dev/ttyA3
	set speed 38400
	set terminal bytesize 8
	set command bytesize 8
	log session ttyA3
	connnect


I then exit ckermit by hitting ^\ following by a 'c' and a "quit".

If I do this a couple of times, one of the invocations of ckermit will
start out by sending out a bunch of garbage characters that include
some breaks.  I have verified this with a protocol analyzer.

So my question is, "is there something I should do when exiting ckermit
or starting ckermit up that will prevent these garbage characters from
being sent?".

Thanks for any pointers,
Matthew H. Gerlach

P.S.  This is particularly important to me, because my embedded systems
change their baud rate when they see break characters.

There is nothing in C-Kermit to send any characters during CONNECT mode
that you did not type.  Maybe there is a bug, but I doubt it because nobody
has had a complaint like this before.

It sounds to me like there is some contention for the Sun's serial device and
another process is transmitting on it, most likely at a different speed, which
accounts for the garbage and BREAKs.  Maybe getty is the culprit?  Please
check to make sure you do not have a getty (login) configured for that device.

If that is not the problem, we can follow up in more detail privately.

C-Kermit for OS/2 supports VT220 as its default emulation.

MS-DOS Kermit and Kermit-95 support VT320 as their default emulations.

TelnetPM and Win95 support VT100.  OS/2 Telnetd only supports VT100 and
ANSI terminal emulations.

SET TERMINAL TYPE ANSI in C-Kermit for OS/2 or MS-DOS Kermit and you
will see your problems go away.

No.  If you want to execute Kermit protocol from within your VB program,
simply run the appropriate Kermit program with command-line arguments or
a script file.

Frank,

Any chance the full GUI version of Kermit for '95 will
be made into an OLE server?  Or an OLE control (ActiveX)
so that it can be dropped into other programs?

A Kermit OLE server or Kermit OLE/ActiveX control would
allow you to compete with these folks making plug-in
controls for transferring files over the Internet, etc.

	Erik

I just installed version 3.14 of Kermit and have been getting stack 
overflow errors, even when running from an empty system (DOS 6.2). 
Kermit is able to log in and run correctly until it hits the stack 
overflow (which seems to be random, sometimes I'm able to get as far as 
the file transfer, sometimes I can't even get past the prompt). I've 
tried messing with the stack default settings (setting the stacks to 
their largest, smallest, and default values), but nothing seems to 
help. Is this a problem that could be solved by getting a later version 
of Kermit or does it just seem like a hardware/configuration conflict? 
I think the video board has shadow ram that requires some exclusions on 
the system memory through the memory manager (but I am not sure of the 
specifics as I couldn't find any documentation). I haven't had much 
experience with modems so I would appreciate any help or pointers you 
could give me. thanks!

System specifications:

As it is not my computer, I am not sure of the exact details, but I can 
give a general discription.

Intel Pentium 133 MHz (Triton II chipset I think)
256K cache
50 MB DRAM
Cirrus Logic PCI video board (543x I think)
I/O board is probably embedded (not sure)
33.6 modem (not sure of the brand name, I've been using Hayes as the 
modem setting in Kermit)
printer on LPT1
Award BIOS (4.50g I think)
running DOS 6.2 and windows 3.11

*** The opportunity of YOUR life!! ***

"Taking 5 minutes to read this article, someone had kindly posted on 
 an Internet Newsgroup, describing how to send A ONE DOLLAR U.S. BILL
 TO ONLY FIVE PEOPLE AND MAKE $50,000 IN CASH WITHIN ABOUT 4 WEEKS,
 can change your life!!"

                   ***PLEASE SAVE THIS FILE!***
Hello! I've got some awesome news that I think you need to take two
minutes to read if you have ever thought "How could I make some
serious cash in a hurry???" , or been in serious debt,  ready to do
almost anything to get the money needed to pay off those bill
collectors. So grab a snack, a warm cup of coffee, or a glass of your
favorite beverage, get comfortable and listen to this interesting,
exciting find!
   Let me start by saying that I FINALLY FOUND IT! That's right!.
found it! And I HATE GET RICH QUICK SCHEMES!! I hate those schemes
like multi-level marketing, mail-order schemes, envelope stuffing
scams, 900 number scams... the list goes on forever. I have tried
every darn get rich quick scheme out there over the past 12 years. I
somehow got on mailing lists for people looking to make money (more
like 'desperate stupid people who will try anything for money!').
 Well,  when I was a teenager,  these claims to 'get me rich quick'
sounded irresistible! I would shell out $14.95 here, $29.95 there,
$24.95 here, and another $49.95 there.  I had maxed out my new Circuit
City Card AND my Visa...I was desperate for money!!  So, I gave them
all a chance but failed at every one of them! Maybe they worked for
some people, but not for me.  Eventually, I just tossed that JUNK MAIL
in the trash when I got the mail.  I recognized it right away.  I
can>smell a money scam from a mile away these days,  SO I THOUGHT....
I thought I could sniff out a scam easily.  WAS I WRONG!!  ....I LOVE
THE INTERNET!!!

   I was scanning thru a NEWSGROUP and saw an article stating to
GET CASH FAST!!  I thought..."Here on the Internet??  Well, I'll just
have to see what schemes could possibly be on the internet." The
article described a way to MAIL A ONE DOLLAR BILL TO ONLY FIVE PEOPLE
AND MAKE $50, 000 IN CASH WITHIN 4 WEEKS!  Well, the more I thought
about it, the more I became very curious. Why? Because of the way it
worked AND BECAUSE IT WOULD ONLY COST ME FIVE DOLLARS (AND FIVE
STAMPS), THAT'S ALL I EVER PAY....EVER!!

   Ok, so the $50,000 in cash was maybe an tough amount to reach, but
it was possible.  I knew that I could at least get a return of $1,000
or so.  So I did it!! As per the instructions in the article, I mailed
out ('snail mail'for you e-mail fanatics) a single dollar bill to each
of the five people on the list that was contained in the article.  I
included a small note, with the dollar, that stated "Please Add Me To
Your List."  I then removed the first position name of the five names
listed and moved everyone up one position, and I put my name in
position five of the list.  This is how the money starts rolling in!
I then took this revised article now with my name on the list and
REPOSTED IT ON AS MANY NEWSGROUPS AND LOCAL BULLETIN BOARD
MESSAGE AREAS THAT I KNEW.  I then waited to watch the money come
in...prepared to maybe receive about $1000 to $1500 in cash or so....
 But what a welcome surprise when those envelopes kept coming in!!!  I
knew what they were as soon as I saw the return addresses from people
all over the world-Most from the U.S., but some from Canada, even some
from Australia!  I tell you, THAT WAS EXCITING!!  So how much did I
get in total return?  $1000? $5000? Not even!!! I received a total of
$23,343!!!  I couldn't believe it!!

   I now have a brand new black Acura Integra to speak for, due to
this!! Now after almost 8 months, I am ready to do it again!!! So
maybe it was possible to get $50,000 in cash, I don't know, but  IT
COMPLETELY DEPENDS ON YOU, THE INDIVIDUAL!  You must follow through
and repost this article everywhere you can think of!  The more
postings you achieve will determine how much cash will arrive in your
very own mailbox!!  It's just too easy to pass up!!!

   Let's review the reasons why you should do this:  The only cost
factors are for the five stamps, the 5 envelopes and the 5 one dollar
bills that you send out to the listed names by snail mail (US Postal
Service Mail).  Then just simply repost the article (WITH YOUR NAME
ADDED) to all the newsgroups and local BBS's you can.  Then sit back
and, (ironically), enjoy walking (you can run if you like! :o  ) down
your driveway to your mailbox and scoop up your rewards!!  We all have
five dollars to put into such an easy effortless investment with
SPECTACULAR REALISTIC RETURNS OF $15,000 to $25,000 in about 3-5
weeks!  So HOLD OFF ON THOSE LOTTERY NUMBERS FOR TODAY,EAT AT HOME
TONIGHT INSTEAD OF TAKEOUT FROM McDONALDS AND INVEST FIVE  DOLLARS
IN
THIS AMAZING MONEY MAKING SYSTEM NOW!!! YOU CAN'T LOSE!!

   So how do you do it exactly, you ask?  I have carefully provided
the most detailed, yet straightforward instructions on how to easily
get this underway and get your cash on its way. SO, ARE YOU READY TO
MAKE SOME CASH!!!?? HERE WE GO!!!

                NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS!

 Of every 200 postings I made, I received an average of 5 replies, YES
 ONLY 5, each with a $1 bill enclosed. You make $5 for every 200
 postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 5.

 Each person who sent you $1, now also makes let's say,only 200
 additional postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 4, i.e. 1000 postings.

 On average therefore, 50 people will send you $1 with your name at
 number 4. You make $50.

 Your 50 new agents make 200 posting each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 3
 or 10 000 postings - average return 500 at $1 each is $500. They
 make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 2 = 100 000 postings
 = 5 000 returns at $1 each = $5 000.

 Finally, 5 000 people make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER
 1 and you get a return of $50 000 before you name drops off the list.

 AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE ONLY MAKES 200 POSTINGS! Total
 income in one cycle = $55 500.

 From time to time, when your name is no longer on the list, you take
 the latest posting that is appearing in the newsgroups, SEND OUT
 ANOTHER $5 TO THE NAMES THAT ARE ON THE LIST, PUT YOUR NAME IN
 AT NUMBER 5 AND START POSTING AGAIN. Remember, 200 postings is only
 a guideline. The more you post, the greater the return.

        *** THE LIST OF NAMES IS AT THE END OF THIS ARTICLE. ***

OK,  Read this carefully.  Get a printout of this information, if you
like, so you can easily refer to it as often as needed.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  Take 5 separate pieces of paper and write on it your name and 
adress with the following: "PLEASE ADD MY NAME TO YOUR LIST".  THIS 
CREATES A SERVICE OUT OF THIS MONEY MAKING SYSTEM AND THUS MAKING
IT 
COMPLETELY LEGAL. You are not just randomly sending a dollar to
someone, 
you are PAYING ONE DOLLAR FOR A LEGITIMATE SERVICE.  Make sure  you 
include your name and address.  I assure you that,  again,  this is 
completely legal!  For a neat little twist, also write what slot their

name was in: "You were in slot 3",  Just to add a little fun!  This is

all about having fun and making money at the same time!

2.  Now fold this sheet of paper around a U.S. dollar bill: go to your
bank if you don't live in the U.S.(no checks,coins or money orders),
and put them into an envelope and send it on its way to the five
people
listed. The folding of the paper around the bill will insure its
arrival
to its recipient. THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT!!

3.  Now listen carefully, here's where you get YOUR MONEY COMING TO
YOUR MAILBOX.   Look at the list of five people;  remove the first
name from position one and move everyone on the list up slot one on
the list.  Position 2 name will now move to the position 1 slot ,
position 3 will now become position 2, 4 will be be 3, 5 wil be 4.
Now put your name, address, zipcode AND COUNTRY in position 5, the
bottom position on the list.

4.  Now upload this updated file to as many newsgroups and local
bulletin boards' message areas & file section as possible.  Give a
catchy description of the file so it gets noticed!!  Such as:
"NEED FAST CASH?, HERE IT IS!" or "NEED CASH TO PAY OFF
YOUR DEBTS??",  etc.  And the more uploads, the more money you will
make, and of course, the more money the others on the list will make
too.  LET'S ALL TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER BY BEING HONEST AND BY PUTTING
FORTH 120 PERCENT INTO THIS PROFITABLE & AMAZING SYSTEM!!! You'll reap
the benefits, believe me!!! Set a goal for the number of total uploads
you'll post, such as 100 postings or more!  Always have a goal in
mind!!! If you can UUE encode the file when uploading,  that will make
it easier for the people to receive it and have it downloaded to their
hard drive.  That way they get a copy of the article right on their
computer without hassles of viewing and then saving the article from
the File menu. Don't alter the file type, leave it as an MS-DOS Text
file. The best test is to be able to view this file using Microsoft's
Notepad for Windows 3.x or WordPad for Windows '95. If the margins
look right without making the screen slide left or right when at the
ends of the sentences, you're in business!

5.  If you need help uploading, simply ask the sysop of the BBS, or
"POST" a message on a newsgroup asking how to post a file, tell them
who your Internet provider is and PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS BE GLAD TO HELP.
I would try to describe how to do it but there are simply too many
internet software packages with slightly different yet relatively
simple ways to post or upload a file.  Just ask for help or look in
the help section for 'posting'. I do know that for GNN, you simply
select 'POST' then enter a catchy description under the subject box,
choose 'ATTACH', selecting 'UUE' and NOT 'TXT', then choose 'Browse'
to go look for the file. Find your text file CASH.TXT and click on it
and choose 'OK'.  Place a one line statement in the main body section
of the message post screen. Something like "Download this to read how
to get cash arriving in your mailbox with no paybacks!" or whatever.
Just make sure it represents its true feasibility, NOT something
like..."Get one million dollars flooding in your mailbox in two days!"

You'll never get ANY responses!

6.  And this is the step I like.  JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY LIFE BECAUSE
CASH IS ON ITS THE WAY!!  Expect to see a little money start to
trickle in around 2 weeks, but AT ABOUT WEEKS 3 & 4, THE MONEY STORM
WILL HIT YOUR MAILBOX!! All you have to do is take it out of the
mailbox and try not to scream too loud (outside anyway) when you
realize YOU HIT THE BIG TIME AT LAST!!

7.  So go PAY OFF YOUR BILLS AND DEBTS and then get that something
special you always wanted or buy that special person in your life (or
the one you want in your life)  a gift they'll never forget.  ENJOY
LIFE!

8.  Now when you get low on this money supply,  simply re-activate
this file again; Reposting it in the old places where you originally
posted and possibly some new places you now know of. Don't ever lose
this file, always keep a copy at your reach for when you ever need
cash.  THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE TOOL THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS RE-USE TIME AND
TIME AGAIN WHEN CASH IS NEEDED!

         YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE!!!!!  TRY IT!!!!!

NOTE:
Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you a dollar and always keep
an eye on the local postings of this file... Just to make sure that
everyone is playing the game fairly. You know where your name should
be.....

 Some people have said to me "What happens if the scheme is 'played
 out' and no one sends me any money"? Big deal! So you lose $5 - but
 what are the chances of that happening?

 Do you realise how many Internet Users there are? Do you realise how
 many times this scheme can be utilised over and over again - with
 COMPLETELY NEW people participating?

 There are not HUNDREDS, NOT EVEN THOUSANDS, BUT HUNDREDS OF
THOUSANDS OF NEW INTERNET USERS EVERY MONTH!

 Remember, read the instructions carefully and play FAIRLY...that's
 the only way this will work. Get a printout so you can refer back
 to this article easily.

*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
with your name in the list and not sending the money to the people
already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent
the 5 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had
over $10000!

All the lists are re-distributed as soon as the money is received.

Frank,

Any chance the full GUI version of Kermit for '95 will
be made into an OLE server?  Or an OLE control (ActiveX)
so that it can be dropped into other programs?

A Kermit OLE server or Kermit OLE/ActiveX control would
allow you to compete with these folks making plug-in
controls for transferring files over the Internet, etc.

My apologies if responses to queries recently posted to this newsgroup
seem not to be forthcoming.  As you are all no doubt aware, the netnews
system is being increasingly flooded with ads for get-rich-quick schemes
and other inappropriate material, and that these postings are being chased
by vigilante "cancelbots" originating from who-knows-where and doing
who-knows-what.  The battle between the spammers and the cancelbots seems
to be taking a toll on the netnews system itself, to the extent that
clients and servers become confused, legitimate messages are lost or
ignored, and an inordinate amount of time must be devoted to cleaning up
the mess.  For the past several days, I haven't been able to read any
newsgroups, even though I know messages are coming in, due to some kind of
malfunction related to all this.  Hopefully it will be fixed soon.  In the
meantime, if you have questions or problems to report, you might do better
to send them by email to kermit-support@columbia.edu.

----------
	Stack overflow isn't an MS-DOS Kermit error message; it is coming
from somewhere else in your system. I suggest stripping down config.sys
and autoexec.bat to bare metal, then add back pieces one at a time. TSR's
are the likely problem, as can be memory managment.

Hi everybody,
I'm looking for a socksified OS2 telnet client (proxy, firewall!!!).
Can anybody tell me the name of this file and where to get it (URL http,
ftp!!)??
I really searched the "whole" INET   :-(

Thanx for helping
Kai    :-))

I'm still not able to read and follow up to news, but by a devious route
I can sometimes see new postings, but can only respond to them with
other new postings, so apologies for breaking the threads.  Hopefully our
news server will be sorted out within the week.

Add to that "set command byte 8".  See page 88 of "Using C-Kermit" for an

Be warned that I am fairly ignorant of Navigator plug-ins.  But it seems
to me that one could write a CGI script that will fire up a telnet 
session using the telnet program or kermit's telnet.

CGI scripts run on the server.  Not on the client.

You don't need a plug-in to be able to use Telnet with Navigator.
In fact, at the moment there would be no way to create a plug-in for 
telnet because of the way that Navigator handles telnet URLs.

In the general preferences and options Notebook there is a Apps page.
In the Telnet space, place your telnet app.  For Kermit 95 1.1.7,
you can use "c:\k95\k95.exe -J"


Now whenever a users clicks on a link which contains a telnet URL such as
telnet://kermit.columbia.edu/

The big problem with using a Plug-in for this is that Plug-ins handle 
MIME types or files, and you can't treat an IP service such as telnet
as a MIME type or a file.

Due to personal financial hardships I find myself
in the unenviable position of trying to get back a
fraction of what I paid for this program.

My retailer refuses returns on 'opened' software,
even if I haven't installed the package. Microsoft
couldn't care less about my situation, and
numerous pleas for an exception to their return
policy have fallen on deaf ears.

Believe it or not, I need this money more than any
program, and I thought someone could at least
benefit from this awkward situation.
 
To clarify, this is a store-bought full retail package
which contains 2 cd's (unopened), a license agreement
and manual, and includes the full versions of WORD and
EXCEL (versions 7.0) POWERPOINT, SCHEDULE,
ACCESS and BOOKSHELF. This is a stand alone
product and not an upgrade (you don't need older
versions to run it).

It was my intention to put these programs on a shelf
somewhere until I needed them, but I do not have
that luxury. My resources are extremely limited and
I am at the point where this is the only responsible
thing to do. I'm just hoping there is someone out there
who can use these programs.

Please contact me if you or someone you know
might be interested. I do not have my own email
address yet, however you can write to me at:

Thank you and God Bless.

The source for all Kermit software is Columbia University in New York City:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/

The current version of C-Kermit for SCO (Xenix, UNIX, and ODT) is
is 5A(190).  Version 6.0, which also supports OpenServer 5.0, is in the
final stage of Beta testing, so users of all SCO platforms are urged to
try it and make sure it works.

C-Kermit 5A(190) for UNIX:

The complete package, including source code, initialization files,
installation instructions, documentation updates, hints and tips
files, etc, but NOT binary executables:

anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia edu, directory kermit/archives,
binary mode, file cku190.tar.Z (or .gz for gunzip).

For Kermit 6.0 Beta, kermit/test/tar/cku192.tar.Z (or .gz).

Uncompress, untar, read the instructions at the top of the makefile, and
then give the appropriate "make" command, for example:

  make sco3r22    (SCO UNIX 3.2v2)
  make sco3r24    (SCO UNIX 3.2v4)
  make sco3r24net (SCO UNIX 3.2v4 with TCP/IP)
  make sco_oct3   (SCO ODT 3.0, with TCP/IP)
  make sco32v5    (SCO OpenServer 5.0)
  make sco3r25net (SCO OpenServer 5.0 with TCP/IP)

(There are many other variations -- e.g. for compiling with gcc,
for producing ELF binaries, etc; read the comments in the makefile
for details.)

This should produce an executable called "wermit".  Try it out
and if it's OK, install it as "kermit" in the desired location,
such as /usr/local/bin.  Read the ckuins.doc file for additional
installation instructions.

Binary 5A(190) executables for selected UNIX configurations are
available via anonymous from kermit.columbia.edu, directory
kermit/bin, files ckuker.* (there are many of these) -- get the
READ.ME file from the same directory and read it first.
Examples:

  ckuker.rs6aix32c.3.2.4       - IBM RS/6000 AIX 3.2.4
  ckuker.rs6aix41c             - IBM RS/6000 AIX 4.1.x
  ckuker.irix60                - SGI IRIX 6.x
  ckuker.sco*                  - Various SCO UNIX / Xenix versions
  ckuker.solaris2xg.2.3        - Solaris 2.3 SPARC
  ckuker.solaris2xg.2.4-Intel  - Solaris 2.4 Intel
  ckuker.unixwarenetc          - UnixWare 

For the 6.0 Beta version, prebuilt binaries are in kermit/test/bin.
So far the only SCO binaries we have for this version are for
OpenServer 5.0.

Please send reports to kermit@columbia.edu.  Act now, before it's
too late :-)

Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.
 
 The Internet has grown tremendously. It doubles in size every 4 months.
 think about it. You see those 'Make.Money.Fast' posts more and more.
 That's ... because it WORKS !  So I thought, all those new users might
 make it work. And I decided to try it out, a few months ago.  Besides,
 whats $5.00, I spend more than that in the morning on my way to work on
 coffee and cigs for the day. So I sent in my money and posted.
 Everyone was calling it a scam, but there are SO many new users from
 AOL, Netcom, etc. they will join in and make it work for you.

 Well, two weeks later, I began recieving bucks in the mail!  I couldn't
 believe it! Not just a little, I mean big bucks!  At first only a few
 hundred dollars, then a week later, a couple of thousand, then BOOM. By
 the end of the fourth week, I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came
 from all over the world. And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had enough
 left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.

 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.  Markus
 Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks. Dave Manning claims he made
 $53,664 in the same amount of time. Dan Shepstone says it was only
 $17,000 for him. Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they
 say they did it, it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a
 similar chance with $5 of my own bucks. Not a big chance, I admit--but
 one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in
 this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet
 their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe,
 legal, completely legitimate way. Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

STEP 1.

Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate pieces
of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST." (In
this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're paying for
a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill, money order, or bank note inside
each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five
addresses:

 1-  Fern Suarez
     Mallorca 112
     Hato Rey, P.R., USA, 00917
 
 2-  Philippe
     2104 De Mexico
     Chomedey, Laval
     Quebec, Canada     
     H7M 3C6    
     
 3-  Natalie Jansen
     Lancveldlaan 18
     5671 CN Nuenen
     Holland
  
 4-  Chad Collier
     2785 Cold Springs Rd. #49
     Placerville, CA  95667  

 5-  Steve Boltinghouse
     1009 Bird St.
     Hannibal, MO  63401

STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 250 newsgroups. There are at
    least 19000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new
    and huge. There is no way you can lose.
 
    Now here is how and why this system works:
 
    Out of every block of 250 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
 
    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 250
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings. On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
 
    Now these 50 new people will make 250 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 250 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
 
    Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $60,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 250
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
 
    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

		The end result depends on you. You must follow through
		and repost this article everywhere you can think of.
		The more  postings you  make, the more cash ends up in
		your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

    If you're really not sure or still think this can't be
    for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass it
    along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see
    what happens.


    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS!
    GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL
    WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH!

*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
with your name in the list and not sending the bucks to the people
already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent
the 5 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had
over $10,000!

		TRY IT AND YOU'LL BE HAPPY!!!  :o) !!!!!!!!!!

At work we have a Novell (3.14) network and 2 SCO Unix (3.2.4)
machines networked together.  We are getting a new software package (a
ledger) that will be running on one of the SCO boxes but it only
supports ansi terminals.  I would like to join the two networks and
use kermit on the PCs on the Novell network to access the new Unix
ledger.  The problem is I don't really have a clue what to do.

I have joined the two networks without any problems but cannot find
any drivers for the network cards that will enable kermit to run as a
terminal.  I once installed kermit on an existing Novell/SCO Unix
network (in Abu Dhabi of all places) to replace an terrible (and I
mean terrible) terminal emulator.  Then I simply guessed (lots of use
of the ? key)  at doing set port TELAPI and it worked.  But I am
pretty sure I need some sort of packet driver to handle the tcp/ip
packets to and from the SCO system.  I have a client set of disks that
came in the Novell box.

Our software supplier wants us to use something called ICE TCP which
they say they will only use - but they want to charge us 500 pounds
for it.

Could anyone point me somewhere in the right direction please ?

MSKermit would probably do fine configured as a vt102.  That is generally a
superset of the ANSI terminal.  Unless this software is specifically rude.

For 500 pounds, they might be specifically rude (see above).
But probably not.  

I have used ICE.  I prefer MSKermit.  
And at the time, cost was not a factor.

: Could anyone point me somewhere in the right direction please ?

Kermit is available on the Internet via anonymous ftp from host 
watsun.cc.columbia.edu [128.59.39.2]
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit

kermit/read.me kermit/bin/read.me explain file locations.


The Novell VLM + IPXODI and TCP net.cfg is not intuitive to some folks.
I can't remember how difficult it was to discover the magic incantations,
but ultimately, after getting Netware to work via IPXODI, I modified the 
net.cfg to accept MSKermit TCP:

Link Driver NE2000
	INT 5
	PORT 320
	MEM D0000
	FRAME Ethernet_802.2
   	Frame Ethernet_II
	Frame Ethernet_SNAP
		Protocol IP     0800    Ethernet_II
		Protocol ARP    0806    Ethernet_II
		Protocol RARP   8035    Ethernet_II


As I recall, one of these settings doesn't agree with the docs, but was
visible on the screen as the VLM loaded.

WHAT IS THIS DOING OVER HERE!!!!!!!!! IS THIS JAVA?!!!!

These guys ought to be mailbombed!
These systems DON'T work.

A simple expanation of why this doesn't work!

Only a group of idiots are in for this.
A small group begins. 
And each member tries to get more fools into this systems.
Result: The group is growing exponetially. This always ends to a certain
point. Because of the enormous growth of the people who are in this
business.
The last persons in this system (and that is the biggest group, because
of the exponential growth) are going
to pay for the rest (the smallest group).

Dream on, there goes your fortune.......

While you might make some money off some poor suckers by doing this be 
advised that this is a scam called a "pyramid" or "Ponzi" scheme.  It is
also quite illegal both in the USA and nearly every other country.

Check out the US Postal Inspection Service's web site

       http://www.usps.gov/websites/depart/inspect/chainlet.htm

which starts:
-=-=-
                United States
                Postal Inspection Service
                Chain Letters

A chain letter is a "get rich quick" scheme that promises that your mail 
box will soon be stuffed full of cash if you decide to participate. You're 
told you can make thousands of  dollars every month if you follow the 
detailed instructions in the letter.
. . .
There's at least one problem with chain letters. They're illegal if they 
request money or other items of value and promise a substantial 
return to the participants. Chain letters are a form of gambling,
and sending them through the mail (or delivering them in person or by 
computer, but mailing money to participate) violates Title 18, United 
States Code, Section 1302, the Postal Lottery Statute. 
. . .
Recently, high-tech chain letters have begun surfacing. They may be 
disseminated over the Internet, or may require the copying and mailing 
of computer disks rather than paper. Regardless of what technology is 
used to advance the scheme, if the mail is used at any step along the 
way, it is still illegal.

	Thanks Clarence. The differences in NET.CFG from my recommendations
to your example are in the two extra frame kinds, Ethernet_802.2 and
Ethernet_SNAP. If you are actually running Ethertalk (Appletalk on Ethernet)
then Ethernet_SNAP is an appropriate addition. I think you know my words
on avoiding Ethernet_802.2 as a frame without a merit. Thus my example, which
is real world production, uses only Ethernet_II.

I'm having some problem getting binary transfer rates higher than about
1000 cps with kermit.  I've been messing with both ends setting
packet sizes etc.  Just playing around so far, but its not good.

Is kermit capable of high transfer rates?  What kind of performance are
people getting doing binary transfers?  What should I be shooting for?

I'm useing kermit 5A for unix at both ends.

Thanks for any replies.

There are several incompatible differences between ANSI and VT100/102.
MS-DOS Kermit supports ANSI terminal emulation directly via SET TERMINAL TYPE
ANSI.  However, note that even ANSI is not quite the same as SCO ANSI, so give
it a try and see if it is serviceable.

I have problems with K-95 interfacing with other ZMODEM and Kermit 
terminals. With K-95 in Telnet hostmode, Procomm Plus 2.11 for Windows 
cannot complete a binary upload of a file which it can successfully 
download with ZMODEM and cannot Kermit at all. Procomm can Kermit
with K-95 in server mode with appropriate configs but seems slow. 
NetTerm cannot initiate a file transfer either way with either protocol 
whether K-95 is in Telnet hostmode or Kermit server mode.

Any advice? I was hoping to establish a host for both asynch dialup and 
Telnet with the same user interface primarily for binary file uploads. 
K-95 looked promising.

Further re the Procomm/K-95 ZMODEM problem, attached is the binary data 
which results in the CRC mismatch. In this case 0 bytes are transferred. 
The first 16 bytes in hex are:

35 33 74 6E D5 43 0D 00 - 18 FF FD 32 C4 33 21 11

Procomm can successfully upload this file via Telnet to other ZMODEM 
servers so I would suspect an error in K-95's ZMODEM receive CRC 
calculation.

sz version 3.31 transfers your file to Kermit-95 without difficulty.
So it is not just a Kermit-95 issue.  As requested in my previous e-mail 
response to you on this problem report, I will need to see debug logs 
of the transfer in order to help you solve your problem.

Here is the transfer of your file:

Please, when attaching binary data files, please do not attach them as text
as they will seriously mess up a terminal emulation session.

	"It" means the application, we presume, because SCO Unix is
smarter than that.
	Have you tried SET TERMINAL TYPE ?   to see the choices? One
is ANSI-BBS. Note there has never been a real ANSI terminal, only bits
and pieces emulated in programs.

You have to use the proper device name for serial port A.

It might be /dev/cua, /dev/cua0, or dev/cua/a.  (Try the last one
first.)  For other hints, look in your Solaris manuals, man pages,
or in the /dev directory.

Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.
 
 The Internet has grown tremendously. It doubles in size every 4 months.
 think about it. You see those 'Make.Money.Fast' posts more and more.
 That's ... because it WORKS !  So I thought, all those new users might
 make it work. And I decided to try it out, a few months ago.  Besides,
 whats $5.00, I spend more than that in the morning on my way to work on
 coffee and cigs for the day. So I sent in my money and posted.
 Everyone was calling it a scam, but there are SO many new users from
 AOL, Netcom, etc. they will join in and make it work for you.

 Well, two weeks later, I began recieving bucks in the mail!  I couldn't
 believe it! Not just a little, I mean big bucks!  At first only a few
 hundred dollars, then a week later, a couple of thousand, then BOOM. By
 the end of the fourth week, I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came
 from all over the world. And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had enough
 left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.

 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.  Markus
 Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks. Dave Manning claims he made
 $53,664 in the same amount of time. Dan Shepstone says it was only
 $17,000 for him. Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they
 say they did it, it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a
 similar chance with $5 of my own bucks. Not a big chance, I admit--but
 one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in
 this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet
 their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe,
 legal, completely legitimate way. Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

STEP 1.

Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate pieces
of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST." (In
this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're paying for
a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill, money order, or bank note inside
each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five
addresses:

 1-  Fern Suarez
     Mallorca 112
     Hato Rey, P.R., USA, 00917
 
 2-  Philippe
     2104 De Mexico
     Chomedey, Laval
     Quebec, Canada     
     H7M 3C6    
     
 3-  Natalie Jansen
     Lancveldlaan 18
     5671 CN Nuenen
     Holland
  
 4-  Chad Collier
     2785 Cold Springs Rd. #49
     Placerville, CA  95667  

 5-  Steve Boltinghouse
     1009 Bird St.
     Hannibal, MO  63401

STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 250 newsgroups. There are at
    least 19000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new
    and huge. There is no way you can lose.
 
    Now here is how and why this system works:
 
    Out of every block of 250 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
 
    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 250
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings. On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
 
    Now these 50 new people will make 250 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 250 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
 
    Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $60,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 250
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
 
    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

		The end result depends on you. You must follow through
		and repost this article everywhere you can think of.
		The more  postings you  make, the more cash ends up in
		your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

    If you're really not sure or still think this can't be
    for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass it
    along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see
    what happens.


    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS!
    GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL
    WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH!

*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
with your name in the list and not sending the bucks to the people
already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent
the 5 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had
over $10,000!

		TRY IT AND YOU'LL BE HAPPY!!!  :o) !!!!!!!!!!

Strange problem with old S/W written in DEC-TDMS on VAX using
VT-320 terminal emulation.  The first screen requires a Carriage
Return.  Well, it just hangs and does nothing.  BUT, if you do Alt-X
then C to reconnect, then everything works fine until you exit the
VAX program.  When you restart that one program, it hangs again,
but the same "fix" works.  Just this one VAX program has the 
problem.  I have tried changing many things, but nothing seems 
to help.  (By the way, QVT works just fine with this VAX program.)

Anybody have any ideas?

I am just a bit confused.  When you patch MS-Kermit, is it supposed to be 
permanent or does it have to be repatched everytime it is run?  BTW, how 
close is v3.15 to release?

Thanks,
James

I use Columbia Kermit 3.14 as a external protocol to ProComm for DOS. 
Kermit does not have a script for the above modem; so I use the script for
the Zoom 14.4 modem -- (In the .ini file, I have "set modem zoom").  Is
that the reason why I am only get a file transfer speed of 1,200 to 2,000
bytes/sec -- out of a possible of 3,600 bytes for a 28.8 modem ????

How can I increase the transfer speed? 

TIA

I just changed my old 486-33 8MB motherboard to a Cyrix-P166+ based
16MB board. The MS-Kermit 3.13 does not start anymore but an error
message 'Divide error' is displayed and the system goes back to DOS. I
did not change the config.sys or autoexec.bat files and I am using the
same hard-disk as before. Everything else works just fine on this
computer.

Even the header is not displayed, just this error message.

Is there anybody who could help me on this?

Thanks in advance

If your modem does not have the same commands as Zoom modem, you have to
alter the script to make it work with your modem.  Make sure that it enables
all the modem's high-speed features: an interface speed of (say) 57600 bps,
error correction, data compression, and hardware flow control.

Once you are sure the modem script is working right, tell Kermit to:

  set receive packet length 4000 ; or some other number between 1000 and 9000
  set window 20                  ; or other number between (say) 4 and 31
  set control unprefix all
  set control prefix 0,1,13,...  ; (prefix unsafe control characters)

and then you should get the transfer rates you expect, *IF* the connection
allows it.  See the Kermit FAQ for further information:

We don't have EtherTalk, so I probably don't need the SNAP.  We do have
one machine that needs 802.2 due to the installed card. Or did... that
box might be gone by now ;-)  I'll have to check.  I kept all of the
Net.cfg as similar as possible.

The enabling change that I made was in the middle column (0800,0806,8035).  
My Kermit didn't work with the values suggested in the docs when I
installed, and I noticed during a boot that the value displayed on the
screen was different.  Perhaps that piece of doc has changed, or
perhaps I set it according to the wrong set of docs (Novell?).

I found the myriad of flexibility in the Kermit docs to be a disadvantage.
There are too many generalities without a concrete example of a config.sys,
autoexec.bat, net.cfg, and mskermit.ini.  To include that in mskermit docs
might be a stretch of the realm of responsibility beyond Kermit, but it
would be helpful.
Each of us arrives at a workable set by some method.  I'm just trying to
push my discovered set.
If my set doesn't match the installed case at some site, at least it is an
indicator of actual applied syntax that does work.
At Convergent Technologies, each installation manual included an actual
set of configuration files from a simplified system, and from a slightly
more complex system.  Along with the rest of the docs, it allowed
comparison of one's interpretation against a set that is known to work, at
least for one system.

I am transferring 3-5MB of .zip files daily from a PC to a Unix box, with

The computer(s) or the connection itself might be a bottleneck.  Are you
sure, for example, that the two modems really negotiated a 33600bps
connection?  And if they did, that both computers are fast enough to keep
up with it (hint -- watch the RTS and CTS lights on the modem: if the local
computer is flow-controlling the modem, that means the local computer is
not keeping up; of course the same thing might be happening on the other end,
but you can't see it).

You can gain up to 26% throughput by unprefixing.  Usually you only have to
prefix somewhere between 3 and 8 characters, so depending on the nature of
the data, you can get a significant boost from this.

In that case, you should see better results if your computer(s) can keep up,

This is getting to be a Frequently Asked Question.

Version 5A(190) of C-Kermit uses /usr/spool/uucp by default because that is
what Linux originally used.  If you rebuild it with -DLINUXFSSTND, it will use
/var/lock.  Version 6.0, now in the final stages of Beta testing, is built
with -DLINUXFSSTND by default, and uses /var/lock by default.

C-Kermit 6.0 Beta is in:

MS-DOS Kermit 3.14:

  Anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia.edu
  directory kermit/archives
  binary mode
  file msvibm.zip

If you had a previous version of MS-DOS Kermit, and you
want to install the new version over it, first make safe copies of
your MSCUSTOM.INI and DIALUPS.TXT files, as well as any other
file you might have modified.

Then unzip (with PKUNZIP or equivalent) using the "-d" switch to
preserve the directory structure.  Then read the top-level READ.ME
file for further installation instructions.

MS-DOS Kermit 3.15:

  Anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia.edu
  directory kermit/test/bin
  binary mode
  file msk315.zip

Put the ZIP file in your Kermit directory and unzip.  This gives you
MSK315.EXE plus some update notes, MSK315.DOC.  To test, run MSK315 rather
than KERMIT.  It uses all the regular MS-DOS Kermit 3.14 initialization
files, subdirectories, etc, with no conflicts.

For complete, step-by-step instructions on using MS-DOS Kermit, please
purchase the manual.  It both an introduction for new users and a
reference manual.  Sales of the manual are the primary source of funding
for the MS-DOS Kermit development and support effort.

Ok - I maybe wasn't very precise in my original posting and although I
have had some very helpful E-Mails I still am lost.

I know Kermit very well.  I can install it on a serial link and
configure it and write any scripts that I may need.  I don't know
Novell.  I do know a fair amount of Unix and what I don't know I have
a plentiful supply of manual pages and O'Reilly books that have always
stood by me.

The Novell network we have was an isolated entity.
The two SCO Unix (3.2.4) boxes are networked together using SCO
TCP/IP.

I joined the two networks together so that physically they are now one
but packetly (?) they don't know anything about the other.  I
understand that it is alright to do this.

I have MS-Kermit 3.14 and the book, (and the book for the Unix version
too - I am a bit of a kermit fan)
I would like to use MS-Kermit to connect from a Dos machine, which has
connectivity to the Novell server, to the Unix machines and run as a
terminal.
The Novell machines do not have a net.cfg - they just load ipx.com and
then netx.exe and that is it.  I do have the netware client disks that
have the vlms on and have loaded them on one PC, but cannot access the
Novell system or the Unix system when using it.  I do not have a
driver for the Ethernet board to bind to in net.cfg.

Is it possible for me to connect a Dos box using kermit to the Unix
box over TCP/IP and miss out the Novell side of it all together?

Could my Novell server be using different packet thingy (technical
term) to Ethernet_802.2 ?

The Novell clients ethernet cards seem to be NE1000 compatbile - does
this present a problem ?

I am sorry if I am not much help in helping myself but I have taken
the responsibilty for this system and there is no documentation on
it's setup.  This is not a problem for the Unix side of things as I
know my way around but I do not know enough about Novell etc..

Any help, advice, suggestions etc.. would be very greatly appreciated
- if all else fails i'll run a few RS232 lines to each PC :)

Thanks in advance and retreat

Oh.  Your problem isn't that Kermit won't run on VLM, your problem is that
you can't run VLM for your network.

Different animal, and possibly one that is not addressed here, but in a
Netware group.

You _must_ run ODI in order to share the network interface.  It will
never happen with the old ipx.com.  In the days prior to VLM, it was
not terribly uncommon to run a second network card, with one driver for
Netware on one card, and one for TCP on the other card.

Currently, it should not be a problem getting your Netware to play with the
VLM set of drivers, and then Kermit will fall happily in to place.

Getting Netware to work with VLM is your next task.

I don't know if it is possible to use the VLM set without a netware server
in place (or not configured to accept VLM).  I think not.

Miss out on the Novell side altogether?
If you want to run _only_ TCP on these MSDOS boxes, then you should look
for the crnwyr packet drivers, available on columbia.edu, along with, or at
least near, the MSKermit offerings.
If you need the Novell network, then you must play Netware VLM before you
can use the same card for both TCP and IPX.

After the system is properly configured, your PC will speak directly to the
UNIX box via TCP.  It will not be 'going through' the Novell File Server
for anything.  The Novell protocol will be able to share the same card, but
there is no packeting or tunnelization that I am aware of.

It should be noted, of course, that C-Kermit (written in C), is the most
actively maintained version for which the source is available.

	Patching never changes files. Thus it is always done to the image
in memory, during startup.
	MSK 3.15 is pretty close. The last dangling thread known here is
a Cyrillic translation table yet to be completed.

You can send us a copy of the manual (or command summary) and we'll
make one for you, or you can do it yourself (and send it in so others
can use it too).  MS-DOS Kermit scripts are designed to be easily
adapted to new kinds of modems.  In this case, you would probably
start with the Sportster script (SPORT.SCR) and, manual in hand,
go through the commands and make the needed changes.

My K95 1.1.7 host mode dial-in server works fine with one exception:
if a user disconnects by other than the normal logout menu
option (e.g., turns off his modem, line drops, etc.), the K95 server
keeps the connection open.  Even worse, if another user then dials in 
he gets connected to the previous user's session. 

Shouldn't a carrier drop force a session logout/disconnect?

Thanks in advance

:
It should, if (a) the modem really does turn off its Carrier Detect signal
when the connection drops (this is a modem configuration option, and many
modems are configured at the factory NOT to do this); (b) the cable and
connectors convey the carrier signal; and (c) Kermit has not been told to
"set carrier-watch off".

We will check to ensure that Kermit 95 behaves properly under these
conditions.  However, if all these conditions are not met, Kermit 95 has no
way of knowing that the connection has dropped.  But note that you can set
an inactivity timeout in the host-mode configuration, which results in
automatic logout if no characters arrive within the specified amount of
time, which is 1800 seconds (30 minutes) by default.

I upgraded to a 28.8 US robotics windows only sportster winmodem.
Using MS Kermit 3.14 under windows 95, I issue Connect at the 
kermit prompt and get the same character repeating continuously. 
The repeating character changes when different keyboard keys are
pressed.

Set port com3 results in the 'unknown hardware for port, 
using BIOS3' message. The info in the '22 KERMIT UNDER WINDOWS 
CAN'T FIND MY PORT' faq didn't help.

Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.
 
 The Internet has grown tremendously. It doubles in size every 4 months.
 think about it. You see those 'Make.Money.Fast' posts more and more.
 That's ... because it WORKS !  So I thought, all those new users might
 make it work. And I decided to try it out, a few months ago.  Besides,
 whats $5.00, I spend more than that in the morning on my way to work on
 coffee and cigs for the day. So I sent in my money and posted.
 Everyone was calling it a scam, but there are SO many new users from
 AOL, Netcom, etc. they will join in and make it work for you.

 Well, two weeks later, I began recieving bucks in the mail!  I couldn't
 believe it! Not just a little, I mean big bucks!  At first only a few
 hundred dollars, then a week later, a couple of thousand, then BOOM. By
 the end of the fourth week, I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came
 from all over the world. And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had enough
 left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.

 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.  Markus
 Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks. Dave Manning claims he made
 $53,664 in the same amount of time. Dan Shepstone says it was only
 $17,000 for him. Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they
 say they did it, it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a
 similar chance with $5 of my own bucks. Not a big chance, I admit--but
 one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in
 this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet
 their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe,
 legal, completely legitimate way. Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

STEP 1.

Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate pieces
of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST." (In
this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're paying for
a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill, money order, or bank note inside
each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five
addresses:

 1-  Fern Suarez
     Mallorca 112
     Hato Rey, P.R., USA, 00917
 
 2-  Philippe
     2104 De Mexico
     Chomedey, Laval
     Quebec, Canada     
     H7M 3C6    
     
 3-  Natalie Jansen
     Lancveldlaan 18
     5671 CN Nuenen
     Holland
  
 4-  Chad Collier
     2785 Cold Springs Rd. #49
     Placerville, CA  95667  

 5-  Steve Boltinghouse
     1009 Bird St.
     Hannibal, MO  63401

STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 250 newsgroups. There are at
    least 19000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new
    and huge. There is no way you can lose.
 
    Now here is how and why this system works:
 
    Out of every block of 250 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
 
    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 250
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings. On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
 
    Now these 50 new people will make 250 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 250 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
 
    Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $60,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 250
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
 
    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

		The end result depends on you. You must follow through
		and repost this article everywhere you can think of.
		The more  postings you  make, the more cash ends up in
		your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

    If you're really not sure or still think this can't be
    for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass it
    along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see
    what happens.


    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS!
    GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL
    WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH!

*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
with your name in the list and not sending the bucks to the people
already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent
the 5 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had
over $10,000!

		TRY IT AND YOU'LL BE HAPPY!!!  :o) !!!!!!!!!!

A Winmodem isn't a real modem -- it only works in Windows, with Windows
applications, because the real work of the modem is done by Windows drivers
on your PC.

You can't use MS-DOS Kermit with a Winmodem.  Nor with an RPI modem.
Nor with any other kind of "controllerless" modem; only with real modems.

We'll have to update that section.  In the meantime, read the section
on RPI modems.  It applies to Winmodems too.

Kermit 95, as a native Windows 95 application, should work fine with
your Winmodem.  More info at:

That's a little harsh, Frank.  (but only a little)

His modem will work with MSKermit, but there is no error correction.
As long as he has perfectly clean lines, the modem will be okay, but
without compression.
Unfortunately, there are no perfectly clean lines.  I don't believe it will
be possible to have a reliable connection above 2400 baud.

But the modem should work.
Solomon isn't getting as far as he should, but no matter.  The modem is
junk (oops, that's a little harsh).  Take it back, throw it away, whatever,
get a real 28.8 modem.

"WinModem" sounds like an improvement over a standard modem, but it does
clearly note Windows-only on the box, usually.
Look for one that says "True V.42" on the box.  I think that's the
buzzword.  It's easy if you compare two boxes from the same vendor, one for
$149, and the other for $169, when the boxes and descriptions are almost
identical.

Have you tried it?  This would be true of an RPI modem, but a Winmodem is
quite different.  With an RPI modem, you need special Windows-only drivers
to provide the error correction and data compression.  Without the drivers,
you can still use the modem without these features, as noted in our FAQ.

But with a Winmodem, you need Windows-only drivers (as far as I know, these
are available only for Windows 3.1 and Windows 95, but NOT Windows NT) to
use the modem at all.  Without these drivers, it is simply not a modem.

The following posting appeared on comp.dcom.modems on August 7, 1996, in
response to a similar query:

"While the Winmodem does have some advantages over modems, this device and
others like it are generally inferior to a real and true modem.  The
Winmodem isn't really a modem, it's just a DSP and a few other componants on
a card.  It doesn't become a modem until you load up the Windows drivers for
it.  First off this means that you're totally and completely stuck with
Windows software.  No support for DOS in any way (not even through a DOS
session in Windows), OS/2, Linux, or even WinNT.  Furthermore it uses your
computer CPU for some tasks normally handled by a processor in the modem.
This drains some CPU power and memory from your computer, which can slow
applications down (although just how much it'll slow things down depends on
a number of factors)."

We have verified this to be true locally.  The Winmodem does NOT work with
MS-DOS Kermit, neither in DOS, nor in a DOS window of Windows.  It does work,
however, with Kermit 95 on Windows 95 (not NT) when the Winmodem driver is
properly installed.

	Windows simulates serial ports to programs such as MS-DOS Kermit.
That means you spend time with the Windows Resource Kit to configure Win95
to your liking. And double check that no other task is using the same
serial port (such as a fax program or even the mouse).

I'm no VB guru, but I'll step in here anyway.

In addition to the sources for C-Kermit, which are avaialable, there
was a series of articles in Dr. Dobbs Journal a year or so ago by 
someone named (I think) Keintzle (my apologies to the author if I got
it wrong... it's from memory) in which he presents his own implementation
of a Kermit protocol engine. He claims he's done some fine-tuning of
Kermit's sliding window retry-the-packet logic that can, under less than
optimum conditions, be a big performance win. I've actually downloaded
his sources but haven't really done anything with them, so I can't
comment on the effectiveness of his implementation.

It's in C, so I don't know if there's any reasonable way to access it
from VB.

Kermit 95 does not support any particular hardware on the hardware level.
If the ISDN adapter comes with a driver that makes it look like a PC COM
port, then Kermit supports it to the extent that you can CONNECT to it and
type commands at it to make it dial, etc.  If, in addition, it has a Hayes-
like user interface (AT commands), then the DIAL command can be made to work
with it.  If the AT commands are compatible with the Courier or Sportster,
then the DIAL command should work with it already.

In case its user interface is different from the Courier or Sportster, then
if you would like to send us a copy of the manual or command summary, we
will add direct support for it into the DIAL command, or make a user-defined
modem type for it.

Aloha,

We use the MS-DOS version of Kermit for our TCP/IP connectivity to 
various unix/linux/nt systems.  I grabbed the mid-Sept Beta-8 
for MSKermit 3.15 and noticed a cosmetic bug in the SET PROMPT command.

In our k_XXXX.ini kermit scripts for the various TCP/IP connections, we 
set our KERMIT Prompt like this:

  asg z2 { SPERRY DELL MROCS SAACONS SSSC OTHER }

  SET PROMPT {\13\10\m(z2)\13\10\v(space) \v(dir) \254 -PFO-KERMIT- }

In Beta 7, this yields the correct prompt like this:

(blankline)
  SPERRY DELL MROCS SAACONS SSSC OTHER
  659292160 C:\HIGUARD * -PFO-KERMIT-

In Beta 8, however, the escaped \xxx codes don't work, and the prompt is:

  \13\10SPERRY DELL MROCS SAACONS SSSC OTHER \13\10659292160 C:\HIGUARD \254
  -PFO-KERMIT-

No.  Kermit 95 is a 32-bit, protected mode, multithread application.
It can't run in Windows 3.x, not even under Win32s, which does not support
mulitple threads.

	Your report could have gotten lost in the shuffle, or the response
could have bounced from a mailer problem, the real reason is unknown at this
time. So perhaps you could try yet again, thanks.

I've done some more experimenting following some email from Frank da Cruz, and
haven't yet achieved what I want, but understand the issues a little better.

The above will start a kermit session in the desired fashion, but doesn't
negotiate telnet parameters, even with the latest ckcnet.c 6.0.073 and the 
TELOPT DO command being on the first line of the .kermrc file.

While version 6.0 of C-Kermit (the VMS and UNIX versions) can accept incoming
TCP/IP connections itself, we have not yet worked out the details for running
it under inetd.  That will come in a future release.  This item has
relatively high priority.

: telnet2 stream  tcp     nowait  bbs     /opt/bin/kermit -y /home/bbs/.kermrc kermit
: 
: in /etc/inetd.conf, and have C-Kermit run a script, negotiating telnet options
: with the calling telnet?

The only problem with this scenario is that Kermit is not a Telnet Daemon.
Nor would you want it to be.  If what you want is a telnet connection
that only allows the user to access Kermit, then the appropriate method
for doing that is to assign Kermit as your shell process for the Telnet
connection.

The primary benefit of using Kermit as a dedicated server under inetd
is that you don't have the overhead of the telnetd slowing down the 
file transfer process.

This is an appropriate area for discussion though.  What interface should
a Kermit server provide when executing under inetd?

Should it look like the Kermit command prompt?

Or more like SMTP, or FTP, ...?

This is to announce Release Candidate 1 of C-Kermit 6.0.192 for UNIX, VMS,
AOS/VS, OS-9, Plan 9, hopefully to be joined soon by several other operating
systems.  The previous general release of C-Kermit was 5A(190) in October
1994.  The previous 6.0 Beta test, 6.0.192 Beta.030, was announced on
October 8, 1996.  The changes since version 5A(190) are listed in the
accumulated Beta announcements in the MAIL.TXT file (see below).

The changes since Beta.030 are mainly just to get the code to build
successfully on every conceivable platform and affect mainly #ifdefs, casts,
prototypes, makefile entries and/or other build procedures, plus a few bug
fixes.  Highlights include:

 . New support for Plan 9 from Bell Labs (serial only, for now).
 . New support for Digital UNIX 4.0.
 . New support for BeOS DR8.
 . Work around HP-UX 10.10 and 10.20 fatal curses bug.
 . IRIX 6.0 fixes & improvements.
 . Commodore Amiga fixes & improvements.
 . RLOGIN protocol fixes.
 . Make new VMS high serial speeds actually work.
 . Various problems with making a second telnet connection fixed.
 . VMS-to-VMS labeled-mode transfers fixed.
 . Telnet negotiations are now even more defensive against buggy partners.
 . VMS server's REMOTE DIRECTORY (etc) listings were missing CR's - fixed.
 . Format and accuracy of REMOTE DIRECTORY listings improved.
 . Fixed VMS "if directory disk1:[foo]blah.dir;1".
 . Fixed VMS "send disk1:[foo]blah.dir;1".
 . Improved SET LINE error messages for VMS.
 . Fixed bug in multiline GET command parsing.
 . Fixed several bugs in "OK to exit?" parsing (as well as ASK and ASKQ).
 . \freplace() function fixed.
 . Yet Another UUCP Lockfile Format For Linux.
 . Other minor bugs fixed.
 . All text files updated, many of them in big ways.

The majority of work this past month concentrated on HP-UX 10.xx, where a
new curses library introduced in version 10.10 was giving C-Kermit (and any
other application that linked with the curses library) fits, and on VMS,
where the almost limitless combinations of Alpha vs VAX, DECC vs VAXC, and
Multinet vs UCX vs TCPware vs CMU/Tek, etc, and every release of every one
of those things I just said (e.g. DEC C 4.0 vs Multinet 3.5B vs VMS 7.0).
Thanks to the tireless work of a small group of VMS die-hards :-) we now
handle just about every case automatically.

And for AOS/VS...

   Data General MV 2500/DC AOS/VS II 2.20.00.39 + TCP/IP

Those are just the ones I did myself.  Lots of others were tested elsewhere
since the last beta.  You can find a pretty thorough list at the end of the
ckc192.upd file.

Thanks to all of you who tested the last Beta and sent in reports.  Special
thanks to those who contributed extraordinary amounts of testing, expertise,
code, or equipment since Beta.030: Peter Eichhorn, Steve Walton, JE Jones,
Nigel Roles, Carl Friedberg, John Santos, Paul Kimoto, Lucas Hart, Hunter
Goatley, Bernie Volz, Joellen Windsor, Jeff Altman, Neal Murphy, Patty Chien,
Chuck Fuller, Hellmuth Michaelis, David-Michael Lincke, Mike Freeman, and
Terry Kennedy.

WHERE TO GET IT (the regular place):

Quick access for Web users:
  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit
    Follow the "What's New" link (reload if necessary).

The new test version is available via anonymous ftp from:

  kermit.columbia.edu

in the kermit/test directory tree:

kermit/test/text/
  Contains individual source files, documentation files, makefiles, etc;
  ftp in text mode.  The general formula for getting all the files you need
  for a particular version is:

    text
    prompt
    mget ck[cuw]*.[cwh] ck?*.* 

  (where ? = v for VMS, 9 for OS-9, etc)

kermit/test/tar/
  The complete UNIX sources, makefile, and documentation files as compressed
  tar archives: cku192.tar.Z (uncompress) and cku192.tar.gz (gunzip)

kermit/test/bin/
  Individual binaries, all of them used to transfer themselves (in binary
  mode, of course :-)  ftp them in binary mode.  The READ.ME file in this
  directory explains what is what (text mode for this file only).  NOTE:
  The VMS versions now have long descriptive names showing the hardware
  (A or V), VMS version, and TCP/IP product and version.  The rest of the
  missing VMS binaries are needed.

Reports of all kinds -- good, bad -- are most welcome; please send them
straight to me:

  fdc@columbia.edu

BINARIES NEEDED

Binaries that are not already present -- for DG/UX, Solaris/Intel, VMS with
other TCP/IP products, AIX 4.2, AIX 3.2.5, whatever you have -- are needed.
This is the VERY last chance before the final release to discover if you
*can* make a binary for your platform.

If you can make a binary please send email to me at fdc@columbia.edu and
make arrangements to upload it.  If you tried and failed to build this
version, also send me mail so we can work out the kinks.  Alternatively,
I'm more than happy to do it myself if I can get Telnet and FTP access to
an appropriate development platform.

Watch the comp.protocols.kermit.misc newsgroup for further announcements.

Thanks!

There is a horrible bug in HP-UX 10.10 and 10.20 that affects C-Kermit and 
all other programs that link with the curses library.  You need to either
(a) install patches from HP, or (b) get a new version of Kermit from us at
Columbia, which we will be announcing within a few days.  For HP-UX 10.10,
the HP-UX patch is PHCO_8086.

Does anyone know if it's possible to use the "expect" scrunipt utility
already on unix systems to run dial-in, telnet, application, etc., scripts?

C-Kermit is designed to be used interactively, or via command files
(scripts).  It is not designed to be tricked by "expect" into *thinking* it
is being used interactively, but some people do that anyway -- they are on
their own for this.

C-Kermit has its own script programming language built in, so you don't
need to use expect to write scripts -- it's just another layer of
complexity and potential problems that you don't need.

You don't say if you want more than one to the same host, or one each to
multiple hosts.  Multiple hosts just happens, so I assume you want two
sessions to the same host.
You can't.  Sort of.
If you try to initiate the "same" connection from the K-95 dialer, it won't
work.  If you have an identical copy with a different name, that will work.
I never use more than two, and then only on one host, so amongst my dialer
listings, there is a foxtrot, and a foxtrot-2

In version 1.1.8, coming up soon, you will also be able to launch multiple
simultaneous sessions to the same host.  The only reason you can't do that
now is that, if you did, the Dialer would not know which session to shut
down if you pressed the HANGUP button.

Along the same lines, a question and feature request for K95. Can the the
title bar for the window pick up the name of dialer entry rather than the
host address, for example if the dialer entry says "DRA - Netcat" have that
appear in the title bar rather than unclib.lib.unc.edu.

We have situations where people do log into the same host to run different
parts of our online catalog software and would like to be able to see, for
example, in the title bar that they are running the circulation interface
in one window and the catalogers interface in the other window,

Is this a GUI vs. console issue, or have I just missed something obvious.

Thanks

Can anybody help me solve this problem?

I have a Mac PowerPC running OpTrpt1.1.1-TCP/IP and System 7.5.5
configured to run on the built in ethernet card.  I also have an IBM
R/S6000 250 running AIX 3.2.5 with TCP/IP configured to run on the et0
IEEE 802.3 network interface.  The machines are connected via a CatV,
10Base-T,  RJ-45 cable.  The IBM R/S6000 has a twisted pair adapter
attached to the ethernet port.  

I have tried everything I could think of , find, read, download, and
make-up to get these two machines to acknowledge each other!  All I want
to do is telnet, tn3270 and FTP to and from the R/S6000 via the Mac.  I¹m
keeping the addressing simple:

Gateway 192.168.124.1
R/S6000 192.168.124.2
PowerMac 192.168.124.3
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

I can¹t get even get them to ping each other!  I¹ve tried everything from
simple TCP/IP setup to complete DNS and gateway configurations with
domains, w/o domains etc...  I made the R/S6000 a name server and that
didn¹t work.  I¹ve configured host files on both machines to no end.  The
R/S6000 can ping itself on both the l0 and et0. 

I¹ve read as much of the AIX manual as I can take and downloaded and read
as much from Apple as I could find.

Does anybody have any suggestions or know something I don¹t.  Am I missing
something very obvious or something very obscure!?  I¹d love to know. 
PLEASE drop me line if you¹ve had any experiences with this
configuration.  Even the most obvious or trivial thing may help so please
don¹t hesitate to put in your two cents!

I¹ve left out most of the detail here to keep it as short as possible.  I
will post details if it¹ll help?

Hi,

I am having problems sending a particular binary file from one UNIX
site to another using C-kermit 6.0. All text and 'tar'ed text files
are OK and I even sent a 2Mb binary with no problem but this one just
stalls on the first few packets and just keeps resending.

What is going on?

My op.sys is SCO Openserver 5 (at both ends) and I'm running the
serial line at 38400 and the modem at 28800 baud. I have set binary
transfer mode and the parity setting is 'none'. I also have 'fast' set
and am using XON/XOFF handshaking.

Let me know if more info is required.

Thanks
Chris R.

I would like to transfer binary data from a microprocessor to the
Windows Terminal program. I understand that the terminal program is
running a form of Kermit.
Does anyone know the minimal protocol for a Kermit transfer?
Are there any books that explain the protocol at this level?

I suspect that the "fast" setting is a bit *too* fast if you are using
Xon/Xoff.  If these data characters are unprefixed when Xon/Xoff is being
used anywhere along the communications chain, file transfer won't work.  
Tell C-Kermit, after giving it the FAST command, to "set control prefix 17 
19 145 147".  I should probably make it less easy to unprefix these 
characters before the final release of 6.0.

Thanks for the report.

First I'd recommend that you not use Windows Terminal for file transfer.
If you want to transfer files with Kermit protocol to or from a PC with
Windows 3.x, use MS-DOS Kermit (current version 3.14, soon to be 3.15).

The Kermit protocol specification is in:

There is currently no support for communication between Kermit sessions
if that is what you are looking for.

Of course, you can execute the script within each Kermit session and have
it send the same string to the host.

Why don't you provide us a better idea of what you are attempting to 
accomplish?

In response to several Emails I would like to add the following details;

en0 (2) & et0 (802.3) : from what I read (IBM docs) to use 10Base-T wire
and cable adapter on the R/S 6000 250 (only) you have to use 802.3
standard.  This is why I used et0 and not en0.  Although I did try it at
first with standard ethernet.  I think this may be the problem!   I don't
think the cable adapter is correct.  It's only got 6 pins which connect to
the "thick" style card.

If this is the problem can I get some type of other adapter for the R/S
6000 to connect 10Base-T line or can I get an AAUI type cable which I have
on the PowerMac also?

Thanks for all of your suggestions!  I'll let you all know if I overcome!

Following on from my previous post, I have now tried lots (but not
all) combinations of parity & handshaking with no improvement.

The one big clue I have is that ZMODEM transfer via kermit works fine.
By running rz at the remote end and setting 'set protocol zmodem' at
the local end I could transfer all the files that previously caused
the problems.

Thanks
Chris R.

This could be a hardware flow control latency problem.
Text files, and some binaries, can be compressed by the modems, but other
binaries cannot be compressed, so a 38400 line needs flow control on a
28800 connection.  If the flow control of your tty driver is deficient, it
won't be able to flow control properly.  I see this happen with my Unixware
1.1.4 system, and it is supposed to be fixed in 2.x
I can transfer to my Unixware box from my Sun box all day long, with large
packet sizes, and see kermit transfers of 2800+ cps.
>From Unixware to Sun, I have trouble with packet sizes larger than 2000,
when transferring .zip files.  Text files, and most binaries, transfer just
fine.  I have set "send packet 1000" on the Unixware side, and see
transfers of 2800+, so it doesn't hurt the throughput.  I do see the window
count climb occasionally, but the transfer is okay.
I know it is the Unixware, and not the Sun, because of transfers to and
from other systems.

Again, this is a known deficiency in my Unix, not kermit.  ZModem transfers
do work better, I think because that is a simplex protocol, rather than the
duplex protocol of Kermit.

You should use en0 instead of et0 on the RS/6000 and not to check the
802.3 box on the TCP/IP control panel in the Mac.

I don't know if this is the appropriate newsgroup but...

For some reason tonight when I tried to upload my text file to the DEC
UNIX system (at the University where I am taking a class) I am logged into
right now, kermit kept bombing out with too many errors.  I was dialed in
at 4800 baud using MS-kermit (as always) on my local IBM-PC so I decided
to check the speed setting of the remote kermit and it was 9600.  So I
started attempting to change the speed:  "SET SPEED 4800" and kermit
responds "?Sorry, you must SET LINE first" so I go huh? what does that
mean but finally I figure it wants "/dev/tty/" like it says after I do a
"show communications"  so I type "SET LINE /dev/tty" and then "SET BAUD
4800" and guess what it says then:  "?Sorry, you must SET LINE first". So
then I am looking around trying to get it to change the baud rate:  I try
restarting kermit with "kermit -b 4800" and still it gets set to 9600.  I
try "kermit -b 4800 -Y" and still no dice.  I try creating a new file
called .mykermrc like it says.  And in the file I put "set baud 4800" and
guess what message I get when it starts:  "?Sorry, you must SET LINE
first" so I add "SET LINE /dev/tty/" at the beginning of the file and
after I restart kermit guess what message I still get... sigh... 

Is there some solution here?  The thing that really baffles me is I have 
never had any problem using kermit before.  Always worked like a charm 
until tonight...

Oh yea, here is the version info:  C-Kermit 5A(189), 30 June 93, DEC OSF/1
                                   Numeric: 501189

Hello:
 
  I noticed in the C-Kermit 6.0 Announcements that OS/2 has quietly
  dissapeared from supported platforms.
 
  Does Kermit organization have an official position about this,
  or is it a matter of 'youre on your own'
 
 
I appreciate any official response towards either direction.

Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.
 
 The Internet has grown tremendously. It doubles in size every 4 months.
 think about it. You see those 'Make.Money.Fast' posts more and more.
 That's ... because it WORKS !  So I thought, all those new users might
 make it work. And I decided to try it out, a few months ago.  Besides,
 whats $5.00, I spend more than that in the morning on my way to work on
 coffee and cigs for the day. So I sent in my money and posted.
 Everyone was calling it a scam, but there are SO many new users from
 AOL, Netcom, etc. they will join in and make it work for you.

 Well, two weeks later, I began recieving bucks in the mail!  I couldn't
 believe it! Not just a little, I mean big bucks!  At first only a few
 hundred dollars, then a week later, a couple of thousand, then BOOM. By
 the end of the fourth week, I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came
 from all over the world. And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had enough
 left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.

 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.  Markus
 Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks. Dave Manning claims he made
 $53,664 in the same amount of time. Dan Shepstone says it was only
 $17,000 for him. Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they
 say they did it, it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a
 similar chance with $5 of my own bucks. Not a big chance, I admit--but
 one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in
 this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet
 their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe,
 legal, completely legitimate way. Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

STEP 1.

Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate pieces
of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST." (In
this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're paying for
a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill, money order, or bank note inside
each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five
addresses:

 1-  Fern Suarez
     Mallorca 112
     Hato Rey, P.R., USA, 00917
 
 2-  Philippe
     2104 De Mexico
     Chomedey, Laval
     Quebec, Canada     
     H7M 3C6    
     
 3-  Natalie Jansen
     Lancveldlaan 18
     5671 CN Nuenen
     Holland
  
 4-  Chad Collier
     2785 Cold Springs Rd. #49
     Placerville, CA  95667  

 5-  Steve Boltinghouse
     1009 Bird St.
     Hannibal, MO  63401

STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 250 newsgroups. There are at
    least 19000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new
    and huge. There is no way you can lose.
 
    Now here is how and why this system works:
 
    Out of every block of 250 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
 
    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 250
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings. On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
 
    Now these 50 new people will make 250 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 250 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
 
    Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $60,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 250
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
 
    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

		The end result depends on you. You must follow through
		and repost this article everywhere you can think of.
		The more  postings you  make, the more cash ends up in
		your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

    If you're really not sure or still think this can't be
    for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass it
    along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see
    what happens.


    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS!
    GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL
    WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH!

*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
with your name in the list and not sending the bucks to the people
already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent
the 5 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had
over $10,000!

		TRY IT AND YOU'LL BE HAPPY!!!  :o) !!!!!!!!!!

Well, I'm not doing so well on my own.  I tried compiling a
pre-beta version and I didn't get far.  I gave up quickly -
deciding to wait for the final release.

Since then, however, I've been reluctant to spend the effort
to make v6 because v5 works so well for me that I'm not sure
it would be worthwhile to make another version.

The kermit on the Unix box reflects comm settings as they exist on the Unix
box...  That sounds too simple ;-)
They are the settings that you would see if you did "stty" at the unix
command prompt.  You can't change the baud rate, because it is on your
existing connection, and you have no way of controlling that.  It is
established by the Unix login process when you connect.

9600 is a pretty standard thing to have on an older Unix box.  Newer ones
might have substantially higher speeds.  It has probably always been this
way, and you only noticed now because you went looking for a solution to
your problem.

Perhaps there has been a change, like a new set of modems or modem server,
installed on the Unix box.

Depending on your hardware configuration, you should probably be running
9600 baud at your end, and set your modem to handle the speed matching...
You might already be doing that anyway, since there are no real 4800 baud
modems.

Does the system work well, except for kermit?  I think something affecting
flow rates, like an upgrade to the modems on the Unix box, has affected
you.  Try "ls -l /etc" and see if the text flows cleanly.

When C-Kermit is in remote mode, "show comm" lists the speed that the
operating system reports.  These days, it is very common for this to be
different from the actual speed at your end.  Usually this is because there
is some device -- such as a terminal server -- between your PC and the
computer where C-Kermit is running, and the connection between them is over
some kind of network (TCP/IP or LAT), in which serial speeds are meaningless
anyway.

Just what it says.  The SET SPEED command is only for use when dialing out.
It only affects the device you have assigned for dialing out, not your job's
own controlling terminal.  (If it did, you connection would instantly become
unusable.)  (If you had a true serial connection, e.g. to a VAX serial port,
you could change its speed, escape back, change the PC's speed, and reconnect,
but I don't think that's what you had in mind.)

If you want to connect to the remote host at a different speed, you need
to INITIATE the connection at that speed.

: Oh yea, here is the version info:  C-Kermit 5A(189), 30 June 93, DEC OSF/1
:                                    Numeric: 501189
The current version is 5A(190), and 6.0 will be released shortly.

As you know, the OS/2 version of C-Kermit is significantly different from
the UNIX and VMS versions in that it includes a full-blown terminal emulator,
complete with all the amenities.  Thus the work involved in maintaining this
version is perhaps an order of magnitude greater than maintaining the "plain
text" versions such as the ones for UNIX and VMS, which are portable to
hundreds of different platforms.  As most people are also aware, OS/2 is
rapidly fading into obscurity, despite its merits.

Nevertheless, we do plan to release a new product for OS/2 shortly.  Watch
this newsgroup, and the appropriate OS/2 newsgroups, for announcements.

Has anyone written any notable script

I'm looking to change the messaging

Any k95d script additions,
please let me know. I'd
like to share some ideas.

I'm trying to use a package that let's me send messages to an
alpha-pager. It uses kermit and I am having nothing but headaches with
it.

I'm using it on a Linux machine with kernel 2.0.6.

The problem goes something like this:
First, when the script tells kermit to dial, the *first* thing it does is
go off hook and then issue a carrier (as if I had just send an "ATA" to
the modem). It then goes back on-hook a second or two later. Then, after
about 10 seconds, I get "DIAL Failure: Error initializing modem". This is
what happens with the script as I've currently got it. In the past, it's
done things like connect to the remote host but the data gets all
garbled.

I've tried this with a cheap-o hayes-compatible 14.4, a Gateway Telepath
33k, and am currently trying it with a Zoom 33k.

So, is it me or is kermit like the flakiest program on the planet?

Oh, by the way, here's the script I'm using. It's from SysAdmin
magazine... about a year back...

Don't try to mix and match sending raw AT commands to the modem and using
the DIAL command.

You have to know how to use it.  The DIAL command, for example, hangs up
the current connection, if any, to make sure that it is talking to the
modem's command processor, and so that it knows the modem can expect to be
able to dial when told to.  There are all sorts of SET DIAL commands to
control this, especially in the new 6.0 version of C-Kermit.

Is this supposed to be TAP protocol?  There are much better ways to do this,
especially in C-Kermit 6.0, which even comes with a short and simple TAP
paging script.

C-Kermit 6.0 is just about ready for release.  Why don't you pick it up and
give it a spin:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/test/tar/cku192.tar.gz (or .Z)

Uncompress, untar, make the appropriate target (see the comments at the top
of the makefile for a list).   The Alpha pager material is in the file
ckepager.ksc.

I am aware that OS/2 is widely perceived as fading into obscurity.
My own observations have yet to support this (number of OS/2 users
seems to be growing slowly).

Thanks for the continued support.  I'm a happy user of 5A (191),
as I've been of previous Kermit releases since about 1983.

Hi!  We're having a problem at work, and I hope that the folks in this
newsgroup can help solve it.

We have an application that must (for mainly political reasons :) use ZModem
to transfer data onto our UNIX server (a Sequent S5000/SE70).  The data can
actually come from several different locations (roughly 200, in fact :).  I
want to use C-Kermit on our server, for all of the obvious reasons.  We have a
ZModem implementation (rz and sz), but if I just shell out once the
connections are made, by doing a !rz filename we never get the file
transferred.  

Has anybody here played with this?  I know it can be done, as I've got the
OS/2 implementation of it at home.  :)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks!

THIS is Your Problem!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The average American family spends approximately $400 per month on
food and other grocery store items. That monthly expense is increasing
constantly, and EVERYONE is always looking for ways to cut those costs.

Now the way that most consumers are saving money at the grocery store is
by using " cash off " coupons. In fact recent national surveys report that
90% of  ALL American households use grocery coupons weekly!

But .... until now the problem has been that " coupons clipping " is a 
hit-or-miss proposition at best. It generally means a time consuming,
tedious job of sorting through perhaps dozens of flyers, circulars, and
magazines, and cutting out only those few coupons that fit your needs.

National statistics actually tells us that although the typical Sunday paper
contains 100 or  more "cash off " coupons , the average person manages to
clip only 3 to 6 coupons for products they really want and use.

And  THIS  is Our Solution !!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Why can't someone  invent some kind of a 'system'  so a consumer could 
ORDER  JUST THE COUPONS THEY REALLY WANT AND USE!?"

Well, now someone has!!!

You begin by subscribing to our unique "Coupons-By-Choice" service. For
a subscription fee of just $20 per month you will  receive one of our
exclusive "Coupons-By-Choice" booklets. Your monthly Booklet contains
certificates which may be redeemed for up to $100 worth of cash off
grocery store coupons that YOU  CHOOSE from our list of  HUNDRED
OF NATIONAL , NAME-BRAND PRODUCTS!


HERE IS HOW IT WORKS....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Each "Coupons-By-Choice" Booklet contains 10 "coupon order forms."
EACH order form can be redeemed  for $10 worth of  PERSONALLY
SELECTED  cash-off coupons. You actually CHOOSE  exactly what
coupons you want from our master list which is printed in each Booklet.
You then mail the completed order form and a small handling charge to
our redemption center. In just a few weeks you will receive $10 worth of 
cash off coupons  that YOU  chose! PLUS ...  you will receive additional
coupons of your choice to reimburse you for your handling charge and
your postage!


And remember that these are MANUFACTURERS' coupons for
NATIONAL, NAME-BRAND PRODUCTS, and are valid at any store that
CURRENTLY accept coupons!

So the real beauty of our system is that,  as a subscriber to our "Coupons-
By-Choice" service, you do not have to change your buying habits at all to
receive substantial savings!!

	*   You do NOT  have to shop at certain stores! You continue to     
	      shop where you ALWAYS do!
	*   You do NOT  have to purchase "special" products from special 
                 "dealers!"  You continue to buy the SAME products and brands 
 
	     you do every  day!

Where else can you receive a return of $100 to $200 ... on a monthly
investment of  only $20 !!??

THINK ABOUT IT!....

READY TO START SAVING??

I am looking for the actual character codes sent to a kermit server to:

get file:
so far I have figured out 0x01 0x27 0x20 0x52 <filename> <checksum byte>
0x0d

and response from get


finish


logoff


I am writing an application and apparently the com lib I using does support
kermit xfer after I can tell the remote system I want to retrieve the file

I am also have some trouble calculating the checksum my checksums always
works out to be 0x20 off 

example

original kermit packet
0x01 0x23 0x20 0x4e 0x33 0x0d
                                ^^^^^^
thats the checksum
eveytime I calculate I get 0x13

by the following formula:  checksum = (((sum & 0300) >> 6) + sum) & 077;
sum = all the bytes added up excluding the initial 0x01 upto the checksum
bytes

to get it to work I had to:   checksum =( (((sum & 0300) >> 6) + sum) &
077) + 0x20;

I tested it on at least 3 different packet I captured and all work out to
be 0x20 off

please respond to:
jbarbara@prolog.net, jbarbara@mycrowynn.com

Thanks again

Then you are using rz on the far end?  If so, then rz receives the file on
its standard input, so there is nothing funny going on with i/o redirection.
In that case, the most likely conclusion is that the connection is not
transparent and/or clean enough for Zmodem transfers.

However, it's not quite clear from your question where C-Kermit comes into
play.  If you are making the connection *from* your server, and then expect
rz to use it, you'll need to follow the directions in section 8 of the
ckcker.upd file, which, in turn, can be used only if you have a 1988-vintage
copy of rz uses standard i/o and allows it to be redirected.

Maybe the people you bought the comm lib from should have included
documentation on how to use it.  This sounds like another classic case of
a company that sells Kermit-related material to the general public and then
sends them to the Kermit Project for help with it.  Nice work if you can
get it :-)

Right -- all binary values have "space" added to them to make them printable,
as explained in the Kermit protocol specification.

Ckermit for OS/2 is an excellent piece of kit (despite its
failure to support double-byte encoding).  OS/2 itself might not
be fading into obscurity if the applications supplied by IBM with
OS/2 had been even half as robust and functional as Ckermit for
OS/2.

It certainly is in Japan and the UK, the two countries I have direct
experience with.  OS/2 3.0 was heavily, if stupidly advertised in the UK
(on the sides of buses running through some of the most down market
areas of Sheffield, for example), and most computer stores had a few
copies.  There has been no advertising for OS/2 4.0 and no stores seem
to be carrying it in stock.  Linux gets more column inches in UK
magazines.

Reading Japanese computer magazines and looking at IBM Japan's
vernacular pages (www.ibm.co.jp) suggests a fade in the retail market
with only half hearted support in the business market.

Germany seems to be about the only vigorous OS/2 market at the
moment....

Sorry I wasn't clear.  The basic idea is for our distributors to dial into my
system and transmit their data.  We are doing electronic data interface (EDI)
transactions, and it has been ruled from on high that the data transfers will
use ZModem.  The transfers are also supposed to be simple streams of data,
with no, I repeat no login procedures (in UNIX terms, no getty on the port). 
Obviously, I intend to lock them down as tightly as I can, with no chance of
breaking out to a shell.

I want to use C-Kermit on my end to control the session and receive the data,
rather than write my own comm program.  Therefore, I need to run ZModem under
C-Kermit.

I have received a couple of tips in email, one of which was to look for a 1988
dated version of rz.   I'll also immediately take a look in ckcker.upd, which
I didn't even think of.  Thanks!!

Oh, that!
You don't need the 1988 version.  The newer version is fine, because the
remote end will be dialing in to the UNIX box, and the rz will be occurring
on /dev/tty.  The newer version doesn't allow a Unix user to initiate an
outbound call, where the comm port/modem is on something other than /dev/tty.

What you need is the latest version of C-Kermit, with "set term auto on"
and a protocol of zmodem.  That'll work just fine, calling the external
program adjusted to suit my tastes with
set proto zmodem {rz -y} {rz -a -y} {sz %s} {sz -a %s} {rz -y} {rz -a -y}

I don't remember why the simpler "set proto zmodem" didn't please me.

I am a new user for MS-Kermit.  I have a kermit machine set up and I can ping it from another workstation on my 
network.  I would like to use it as a remote machine so that a DOS application can be run from outside the 
company.  However, I do not know how to accomplish this.  The manual's TCP/IP section tells how to set up the 
connection but does not go into detail about setting up the machine to actually make the it a host in for 
TCP/IP.  I would greatly appreciate it if somebody could help me out.

Thanks,

John

MS-DOS Kermit is a telnet client, not a telnet server.  It can not give you
a remote DOS session.  DOS is not designed to allow that.  To give just one
example: Suppose you were able to send it a DOS command such as "del *.*"
over the Telnet connection.  DOS would immediately write "Are you sure?"
to the PHYSICAL PC screen and wait for a reply from the PHYSICAL PC keyboard.
Your Telnet session would hang until somebody walked up to the keyboard and
replied.  (And of course they would not even know what they were replying to.)

Many, if not most, DOS applications are designed to access the physical
screen, keyboard, and possibly mouse, and so can not be used over Telnet
sessions.  This is why Telnet servers for DOS and Windows systems are not to
be found -- or if they are, they are extremely complicated and fragile.

Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.
 
 The Internet has grown tremendously. It doubles in size every 4 months.
 think about it. You see those 'Make.Money.Fast' posts more and more.
 That's ... because it WORKS !  So I thought, all those new users might
 make it work. And I decided to try it out, a few months ago.  Besides,
 whats $5.00, I spend more than that in the morning on my way to work on
 coffee and cigs for the day. So I sent in my money and posted.
 Everyone was calling it a scam, but there are SO many new users from
 AOL, Netcom, etc. they will join in and make it work for you.

 Well, two weeks later, I began recieving bucks in the mail!  I couldn't
 believe it! Not just a little, I mean big bucks!  At first only a few
 hundred dollars, then a week later, a couple of thousand, then BOOM. By
 the end of the fourth week, I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came
 from all over the world. And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had enough
 left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.

 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.  Markus
 Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks. Dave Manning claims he made
 $53,664 in the same amount of time. Dan Shepstone says it was only
 $17,000 for him. Do I know these folks? No, but when I read how they
 say they did it, it made sense to me. Enough sense that I'm taking a
 similar chance with $5 of my own bucks. Not a big chance, I admit--but
 one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in
 this system. Period. That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet
 their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe,
 legal, completely legitimate way. Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

STEP 1.

Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate pieces
of paper along with the words: "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST." (In
this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone; you're paying for
a legitimate service.) Fold a $1 bill, money order, or bank note inside
each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five
addresses:

 1-  Fern Suarez
     Mallorca 112
     Hato Rey, P.R., USA, 00917
 
 2-  Philippe
     2104 De Mexico
     Chomedey, Laval
     Quebec, Canada     
     H7M 3C6    
     
 3-  Natalie Jansen
     Lancveldlaan 18
     5671 CN Nuenen
     Holland
  
 4-  Chad Collier
     2785 Cold Springs Rd. #49
     Placerville, CA  95667  

 5-  Steve Boltinghouse
     1009 Bird St.
     Hannibal, MO  63401

STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 250 newsgroups. There are at
    least 19000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can. Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

    You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
    returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the Internet is new
    and huge. There is no way you can lose.
 
    Now here is how and why this system works:
 
    Out of every block of 250 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
    money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
 
    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 250
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings. On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
 
    Now these 50 new people will make 250 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 250 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
 
    Finally, 5,000 people make 250 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $60,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 250
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
 
    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

		The end result depends on you. You must follow through
		and repost this article everywhere you can think of.
		The more  postings you  make, the more cash ends up in
		your mailbox. It's too easy and too cheap to pass up!!!

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it. Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily. Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.

    If you're really not sure or still think this can't be
    for real, then don't do it. But please print this article and pass it
    along to someone you know who really needs the bucks, and see
    what happens.


    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE BUCKS!
    GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL
    WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH!

*** By the way, if you try to deceive people by posting the messages
with your name in the list and not sending the bucks to the people
already included, you will not get much. I know someone who did this
and only got about $150 (and that's after two months). Then he sent
the 5 bills, people added him to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks he had
over $10,000!

		TRY IT AND YOU'LL BE HAPPY!!!  :o) !!!!!!!!!!

The MAULE Machine  1.0

Hints
=====

The MAULE Machine is a new concept of calculator: it is a

- multidisplay
- programmable
- multiplatform
- extensible
- distributed
- fully free

internet tool. You can use it as a trivial calculator or as powerfull computer.
The MAULE Machine is based on JavaScript.

Trivial Use
===========

You can type an expression on the input display such as:

(2+2*5)/4

or

Math.sin(3.14)

then, pressing 'Compute' you will get the answer.

Virtual Displays
================

You can use 'Add' to create a new input or output display. When you press the 
button, all the rows written in the current input display will be evalueated, 
and the result will be inserted in the current output display.
'First', 'Previous', 'Next' and 'Last' Buttons are used to navigate into the 
display list. 'Remove' is used to destroy a display.

Advanced Use
============

You can use the powerfull of JavaScript for writing programs, using variables, 
functions, objects and methods.
For example you can write:

n = 4
m = 1
i=1
for (i=1; i<=n; i++) {
	m *= i}</I>

For more information about JavaScript you can consult the Netscape site 
(www.netscape.com).

You can also use

OutWriteLn('string',displayNumber)
OutWrite('string',displayNumber)
InWriteLn('string',displayNumber)
InWrite('string',displayNumber)

to insert text in a specified input or output display. If you don't specify a 
display number the string will appear in the current display.

Extensions
==========

The power of the MAULE Machine is based on the concept that everyone can 
develope new functions and tool, such as mathematical, phisics, chemical, etc.
This plug-in will be developed and resident on other servers and the user will 
download it at run-time.

The C-Tools is an example of a plug-in for complex numbers!!!

Copyrights
==========

The MAULE Machine was created by Mauro Lenzi. All copyrights are reserved.
The copyrigths of each plugs-in will be of the corresponding author.

Has anyone else installed this and had problems?  I was at 1.1.6 on Friday
and patched up to 1.1.7, then 1.1.8, and I'm getting some strange behavior:

* Once in a while Kermit will crash on startup; Win95 puts up a message
  about 'This program has performed an illegal operation and will be
  shut down' or words to that effect.  This doesn't happen all the time,
  but it never happened before Friday.  Asking for details give a message
  about 'K95 caused an invalid page fault in module K95.EXE at
  0137:0045e216.' followed by register values etc.  Exiting other
  applications seems to cure the symptom for a short while.

* When connecting to AIX machines, I get the normal login herald.  When
  connecting to FreeBSD and BSDI hosts, however, I get no herald or login
  prompt; instead I get the 'Password:' prompt.  If I hit Enter I get a
  login prompt and everything seems to work.

Since I try various experiments on my station from time to time it's quite
possible that something was messed up and Kermit tickled a bug.  OTOH, the
timing is a bit suspicious - I've not changed anything else in the last
few days.  So I figured I should ask here first....

There appears to be problem with the old SET TERMINAL CHARACTER-SET command 
when the character-set chosen is TRANSPARENT.

Use the new SET TERMINAL REMOTE-CHARACTER-SET command instead.

Contact kermit-support@columbia.edu if this does not solve the problem.

Version 1.1.8 support TELNET NEW-ENVIRONMENT negotiations.  So do your
FreeBSD, BSDI, and Linux hosts.  They are asking Kermit to send your userid
and so K95 is sending your Windows username if it knows it.  Therefore, 
your host only prompts for your password.

If your Unix login name is different from your Windows username, use either
the SET TELNET ENVIRONMENT USER or SET LOGIN USER commands to specify your
username.  In the dialer, fillin your username on the Login page of the 
settings notebook.

No problem.  

Kermit does so many things it is impossible to catch every possible situation 
in our testcases.

It seems that no matter how thoroughly a release is beta tested, a bug will
show up in the final release.  We'll have a patch for this one shortly.
It happens when you are using ANSI, SCOANSI, AT386, or Avatar emulation, in
which character sets are not translated by default.  To work around:

  SET TERMINAL REMOTE-CHARACTER-SET TRANSPARENT (or other)

and don't use the SET TERMINAL CHARACTER-SET any more.  In other words,
use SET TERM REMOTE-CHARACTER-SET and SET TERM LOCAL-CHARACTER-SET instead
of SET TERM CHARACTER-SET <remote> <local>.

The other bug we have learned about, and will also patch quickly, has to
do with lack of translation of accented characters, etc, from the keyboard
to the host.  I think this one happens only in NT.  To work around:

  SET TERMINAL UNICODE OFF

: 
It's a new feature: version 1.1.8 supports the TELNET NEW-ENVIRONMENT
protocol, by which the client tells the server various things, including its
user's user ID.  You'll see this effect with any Telnet server that supports
this protocol.  Linux is another example.

Another feature that might surprise some people is the new TELNET
terminal-type negotiation (in the true sense of "negotiation").  Example: I
set K95's terminal type to SCOANSI and Telnet to My Favorite Host, then
suddenly and mysteriously K95's emulation "drops down" to (plain old) ANSI.
It's not a bug.  K95 said "my terminal type is SCOANSI"; the host said
"Never heard of it; how about ANSI, can you do that?"; K95 said "Sure thing"
and changed its type to ANSI.  But (you say) "SCOANSI emulation worked fine
before!"  The problem is that the name by which the Telnet client and server
refer to the terminal must be the same.  So either add SCOANSI as a synonym
in whatever termcap/terminfo entry you were using before, or else tell K95
to "set telnet terminal-type" to the termcap/terminfo entry name that is
used on the host.

I am running OpenVMS 6.2 on a Digital Alpha 2100.  I just received my
C-Kermit 5A tape from Columbia University.  My MAKE utility is bombing.
Has anyone been able to get C-Kermit running on a similar platform.
I sure would like a MAKE utility that works.
You can e-mail me at:       mcinnissp@bowinc.com

Reports like this are what kermit-support@columbia.edu is for.  Lyle and
I are in direct touch now and resolving the problem.  He is running DEC C
5.5 (brand new) and the compiler itself is crashing.  NOT a Kermit
problem, but one which we want to resolve anyway.

hello,

We are looking for an object which encapsulates the kermit protocol.

We want to use it to control robots that do blood dry analysis.

we know nothing of kermit, and don t want to know it. hence our quest for 
such object that will give us the opportunity to "talk" which the robots 
(these automates have a built-in Kermit-only protocol).

Thank you to point us to all useful pointers (commercial, 
freeware,shareware).

Thank you to reply to phil@cnam.fr (we don t consult newsgroups very often)

I'm using K95 on SPRINTNET network with X.28 dialup connection.
During file transfer scripts, when a command of change remote
directory is issued the process pauses for 5-10 seconds.
I've set X.3 parameters in this way:
2:0, 3:6, 4:1, 5:1, 6:0, 7:0, 8:0, 9:0, 10:0, 12:1

Does anybody have any suggestion in order to avoid these pauses?

Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance!

We don't supply "Kermit objects", DLLs, etc.  Nevertheless, we have designed
most of our Kermit programs to be usable in embedded applications.  Please

: 
Are you using K95 in Windows 95?  (As opposed to NT?)  If so, you should be
aware that Xon/Xoff DOES NOT WORK in Windows 95.  It is a Microsoft bug.
See BUGS.DOC item 45.  You must use either RTS/CTS flow control or no flow
control in K95.  For example, RTS/CTS between K95 and your modem, and then
Xon/Xoff between the other modem and the PAD.

Then you might try making the following changes to your PAD parameters:

  3:2 4:0

This says to forward data only upon receipt of a carriage return, which is
Kermit's packet terminator.  This way, you won't have each character from
a Kermit packet using an entire X.25 packet.

During terminal connection, however, you probably want to put these parameters
back to their original values, so characters will be sent, and their echoes
returned, as you type them.

Thanks for taking the time to read this message! This is about a lady
that gave all she could to everyone, including me. Her name is Wendy.


	When I was young she became my foster mother after my real
mother had abandon me. Never having any kids of her own she became a
foster parent. That I got to be in her care was probably the best
thing that had ever happened to me. She had other foster children and
even ended up taking care of many of the neighborhood kids.  

	Wendy is a lady that just never gave up and always gave more
than anyone could imagine. I no longer think of my real mother as
mother but rather Wendy as my only true mother. I know that I'm not
the only one that thinks that way either. It wasn't just kids that she
helped it included the elderly, the disabled and the just down and
out.  What it takes to qualify for a saint is something I never found
out, but I know it can't be more than the things I saw this lady do
for anybody.  Even people that had wronged her could find themselves
looking up at her while she helped them when they were down.

	I'm 26 now and many of the things I'm telling you I never
really realized until now.  Since I was a kid she has helped me with
everything from recovering from my mistakes to just being there to say
"You can do it... It'll be okay."  I've never been able to make a good
attempt at trying to repay her for all she's done for me and I'm not
alone.  Many people just have taken for granted the things she's done
for them.  

	I know by now you're asking yourself why I've posted this
letter.  Well, to be honest and straight with you it's because I would
like your help. If there's one thing that I've learned from Wendy it's
that, "We are our neighbors keepers."  You know the golden rule, "Do
onto others as you would have them do onto you." Anyway now Wendy is
an older lady that is disabled and can't do as much as she used to.
With the disability sometimes expenses can be too much. I now live in
Arkansas and can't be of much help. With no real family I'd like to do
something to try to repay all she done for me and many others.

	 That's were you come in.  See if you can think back to
someone that helped you no matter how big or small.  Maybe it's
someone you can't even remember or have lost touch with.  For that
moment picture Wendy and say, "I'd like to repay that kindness."  I
wish you would sit down and write a small note saying "Thanks for
being the generous person that you have been!" If you could include
something to help out.  Maybe it's a five dollar bill, a book of
stamps, even a dollar.  Oh and would you also tell her the Steffin
sends his love.  Her birthday is next month on the 27th and I'm hoping
I can make this own a very memorable one.	

	Thanks for reading and if you choose to help God pless you.
Her address is

Wendy Mcghee

C-Kermit 6.0 is released.  The announcement is on
comp.protocols.kermit.announce.  The C-Kermit files
have all been moved from the kermit/test area on
kermit.columbia.edu to the regular place: kermit/f,
kermit/bin, and kermit/archives.

The new second edition of "Using C-Kermit" is ready,
and there is a whole new C-Kermit 6.0 world on the
Kermit Web site at:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck60.html

We have about 100 new binaries, but more are needed.
If you can send them in, please let me know.

Thanks!

You are using a version of rzsz which is not licensed for such use.
Either license something like Omen's Professional YAMM, or use the 
pre 1988 version of Z-modem (or the recent Gnu bug fix of it).

I've been trying to help a colleague install Kermit 3.14 on a Canon Innova
Book 1100 laptop with a Compaq SpeedPaq 192s modem, running in a DOS
window under Win95. Can't get Kermit to find the modem. Win95 finds the
modem on Int 15. Reassigning the modem to Com1 results in a device
conflict complaint from Win95, although there is no physical device on
Com1. 

Somehow, after screwing around with the setup for a few hours, we got the 
thing to actually accesss the modem and make a call -- and thought we had 
the problem solved. But when we tried it again, without -- apparently -- 
changing anything, it couldn't find the modem again. Don't what know what 
happened.

I would prefer to use Kermit. We're connecting to our institutional VAX,
which uses VT 3xx emulation, and apps running other VT emulations have
problems. Uses C-Kermit for file transfer, too, which interacts poorly
with third-party implementions of the Kermit protocol.

Suggestions?

I'm trying to establish a kermit-connection between
PentiumPro/NT-machine and a HP 1000/RTE-A via serial line.
The connection works except that the NT-kermit didn't recognize the end
of the file sent form the HP1000-kermit. The file will be completely
copied but at the end the NT-kermit times out. Unfortunately there is no
documentation for the HP 1000-kermit.

	Has anyone an idea how to configure both kermits?
	Where can I get the latest version of kermit for HP1000/RTE-A?

Thank you for your reply (ges@gse.de)

In looking at the kermit documentation it talks about "shims that convert 
between one "standard" and another," such as the latest version of Joe 
Doupnik's DIS_PKT9.
Will this work with Windows 95?  If so, how?  Must we edit the

If anyone has been able to do this or knows of a way, please respond thru

Hello,

Under K95 on a Windows 95 platform, I have the following script,
invoked b y a shortcut (kermit -y com2.ini) :

set modem type hayes-2400
set port com2
set speed 9600
set server get-path c:/winbend/23112/brake c:/winbend23112/die etc.
set file download c:/winbend/23112/tmp
server

When a kermit client (hooked up by means of a serial line without
involved modems) requests a particular file, everything works
fine. However, by replacing

set modem type hayes-2400

with

set modem type none

as I am supposed to do, no communication occurs. Although the
simplicity, I am wondering if I overlooked something.

Any suggetions ?

Thanks :-)

Lieven

Evidently your null modem cable does not have CD and DTR
cross-connected in both directions, so K95 thinks there is no carrier,
and therefore no connection.  This is OK when using modems, as there
is *supposed* to be no carrier until after you successfully dial.

Solutions: (1) fix the cable, or (2) tell K95 to "set carrier off".

Hello!

After having installed the new patch to upgrade K95 to 1.1.8 we have
some strange behaviour that I've investigated with a Sniffer. I've
seemingly found something questionable that I'd like to show.

First of all our environment: we use K95 to Telnet to a VMS host with
VMS 6.1 and Cisco Multinet V3.5B.

What the user sees is that the "Username:" prompt doesn't appear
regularly, but rather randomly. What seems to be apparent in the
sniffer captures is that while many option negotiations go on the VAX
always immediately refuses the NEW-ENVIRONMENT option, but all data
sent out by it before K95 acknowledges that with a WON'T
NEW-ENVIRONMENT are not revealed to the user. So if the VAX delays a
little sending out the prompt, that's shown to the user, otherwise it
is lost.

While looking at that I've found also something else strange, namely:

- option 31 (Negotiate About Window Size): it is "negotiated" up to
four times: that is K95 sends out up to four times the same 80 columns
x 24 lines dimension

- option 3 (Suppress Go-Ahead): K95 answers DO to the WILL of Multinet
and then, after some messages, repeats its DO

- options 32 (Terminal speed) 33 (Toggle flow) and 35 (X-display
location): K95 answers WONT to the WILLs from Multinet. Multinet
acknowledges with DONT. Some messages later K95 issues anew the WONTs.

Of course I've mentioned these facts only for completeness. My concern
is for the first problem, because the intermitting "Username:" prompt
is very annoying for the users.

I thank you in advance.

Can you send us a K95 debug log demonstrating this problem?  Tell
K95 to "log debug", send the debug.log file by email to:

  kermit-support@columbia.edu

Meanwhile, if you want to suppress TELNET NEW-ENVIRONMENT negotiations,
you can give the following command to K95:

  SET LOGIN USER

	Please check the release docs of MS-DOS Kermit regarding what's
"COM1" versus the real numbers involved. You mean IRQ 15 (not Int 15, two
very different things technically), and a modem there would be very very
unusual.

	I strongly recommend contacting Canon and Compaq regarding your
laptop. Laptops tend to be highly irregular objects and components often
don't work when mixed together. There is nothing we in the Kermit project
can do to rectify the hardware/software situation on that machine.

	Or, putting this the right way round, there are many third party
implementations of the Kermit protocol which do a poor job of it.

We have a problem running Kermit 3.14 under Windows 3.x and being able to
view 132 columns on a VMS box.  We can view 80 or 132 columns when Kermit
runs on DOS, but when we get into Windows everything falls apart.

Please let me know if anyone has any ideas on this.  The command that we
enter under VMS to get the 132 columns is SET TERM/WIDTH=132 or SET
TERM/WIDTH=80


Thank you in advance for your attention.

Everything we know on this topic is written down in the file KERMIT.UPD
that is in your MS-DOS Kermit directory.  I reproduce it here for your
convenience:

(16) WIDE SCREENS AND HORIZONTAL SCROLLING

Kermit changes between 80 and 132 column mode at host request (CSI ? 3 h / l)
or when you give an explicit SET TERMINAL WIDTH { 80, 132 } command.  Until
version 3.13, 132-column screens were possible only on PCs with video adapters
that have a 132-column text mode.  Now MS-DOS Kermit also includes support for
DEC VT 132-column mode and Data General compressed text on EGA and VGA video
adapters that do not have a 132-column text mode, by entering graphics mode
and writing the characters dot by dot. 128 columns are displayed rather than
132 due to the PC's screen geometry but you can use MS-DOS Kermit's horizontal
scrolling feature to see the rightmost 4 columns.  Wide screens are handled
according to the following commands:

SET TERMINAL VIDEO-CHANGE {ENABLED, DISABLED, DOS-ONLY}
  Enable or disable the video screen from switching between 80 and 132
  columns.  By default, this is enabled in DOS only (DOS-ONLY).  Video-mode
  switching can wreak havoc on some (but not all) PCs when done in a Microsoft
  Windows window and so by default video-mode switching is disabled in
  Windows.  Use ENABLED to enable it AT YOUR OWN RISK.  If it works, Windows
  will probably force Kermit into a fullscreen session.  If it doesn't work,
  then disable it again and use horizontal scrolling instead, or run Kermit
  under plain DOS or in a fullscreen DOS window under Windows.  v3.14.

SET TERMINAL COMPRESSED-TEXT {GRAPHICS, TEXT}
  Tells whether Kermit should use text (fast) or graphics (slow) mode for
  compressed text (wide screens).  By default, it will use whichever method
  it thinks is appropriate to your video adapter.  Graphics is allowed
  on EGA, VGA or higher video systems.  v3.13.

Text mode will not actually display compressed text unless your video adapter
supports this function, but Kermit's virtual screen is adjusted to
the terminal-emulation width.  For example, if your screen shows 80 characters
per line, but your terminal width is 132, then wrapping occurs at column 132
(perhaps off the screen) rather than column 80, and Kermit reports its screen
width as 132 (e.g. in response to a report-request escape sequence).

Of course, for 132-column operation, it is always better if your video adapter
supports 132 columns directly -- the video board does all the work, which is
much faster than writing screen dots in software!  This works if Kermit knows
which kind of video adapter you have (Kermit determines this from a hopefully
unique "signature" in the video BIOS, provided it has not been hidden from
Kermit by Windows or your memory manager, see KERMIT.BWR).  Here is a list of
such boards:

  ATI EGA and VGA Wonder
  AST, Dell, and other boards based on Western Digital VGA boards
  AT&T / Olivetti
  Everex Viewpoint EV-659, FVGA-673, EV-678, Micro Enhancer Deluxe
  IBM SVGA (= Tseng ET4000, e.g. on PS/ValuePoint)
  IBM XGA
  Paradise AutoSwitch EGA Mono
  Paradise Professional
  Paradise VGA Plus 16 (ROM BIOS 003056-xxx firmware)
  Paradise VGA Plus (ROM BIOS 003056-xxx firmware)
  Paradise VGA Professional (ROM BIOS 003056-xxx firmware)
  Paradise VGA1024
  STB VGA/EM (Tseng TVGA)
  STB VGA/EM Plus (Tseng 4000), VGA/EM-16, VGA/EM-16 Plus
  Tseng Labs EVA board with 132-column kit installed
  Tseng Labs UltraPAK mono/Hercules with 132 column modes
  Tseng Labs ET4000 SVGA
  VESA-compatible video BIOS
  Video 7 Vega Deluxe with 132X25.COM driver installed and Video 7 VGA

If you have an adapter capable of 132-column operation, but Kermit does not
know how to activate it, set up your COLS132.BAT and COLS80.BAT files to do
the switching, as described in "Using MS-DOS Kermit".

For Data General DASHER terminal emulation, screen widths up to 207 are
supported for purposes of horizontal scrolling.  DG terminal emulation is in
text mode by default.  As soon as the host commands the terminal to display
compressed text, Kermit switches the entire screen to 132-column text mode if
your video adapter supports it, and otherwise switches to (slower) graphics
mode.  As in VT terminal emulation, this behavior is controlled by the SET
TERMINAL COMPRESSED-TEXT command.  Unlike VT terminals, DASHER terminals (and
MS-DOS Kermit, when in graphics mode) can display compressed and regular text
on the screen at the same time.

(16.1) WIDE SCREENS AND ROLLBACK

Normally, Kermit only keeps 80 columns in its screen-rollback memory.  If you
want to be able to roll back screens of 132 (or, for DG terminal emulation, up
to 207) columns, you must set the KERMIT environment variable WIDTH to 132 (or
the desired number) in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, for example:

  SET KERMIT=WIDTH 132

The KERMIT environment variable must contain a WIDTH definition before you
start MS-DOS Kermit in order for it to take effect.  Wide rollback screens
need more memory than regular ones.

NOTE: The KERMIT=WIDTH value and SET TERMINAL WIDTH value are two different
things.	 The former controls memory allocation in the rollback buffer, the
latter controls the actual display width (virtual or real) of your screen.

(16.2) HORIZONTAL SCROLLING  

If your logical screen width is greater than the physical screen width, MS-DOS
Kermit 3.13 lets you scroll the screen horizontally by pushing keys.  The new
keyboard verbs are:

  \Klfpage    Scroll left one "page" (= 20 columns) (screen moves right)
  \Klfone     Scroll left one column
  \Krtpage    Scroll right one page (screen moves left)
  \Krtone     Scroll right one column

These verbs are unassigned by default. Here are the commands you could add to
your MSCUSTOM.INI file if you wanted to assign them to the gray (T-pad) arrow
keys on the extended (101) PC keyboard:

  SET KEY \2459 \Krtpage  ; Alt-Left arrow makes screen move left on page
  SET KEY \5491 \Krtone	  ; Ctrl-Left arrow moves screen one column to left
  SET KEY \2461 \Klfpage  ; Alt-Right arrow makes screen move right one page  
  SET KEY \5492 \Klfone	  ; Ctrl-Right arrow moves screen one column right

When these keys are used in combination with the PageUp/Down keys, your screen
becomes a "virtual window" on your session, which you can move around in
arbitrary directions.

By analogy with SET TERMINAL ROLLBACK { ON, OFF }, which tells Kermit whether
to move a rolled-back screen automatically to the bottom when new characters
arrive from the host, the new command:

  SET TERMINAL HORIZONTAL-SCROLL { AUTOMATIC, MANUAL }

tells Kermit whether to scroll horizontally when a character arrives that
would be displayed to the left or right of the visible screen. By default,
horizontal scrolling is MANUAL during VT terminal emulation, and AUTOMATIC
during DASHER emulation.  MANUAL means you have to push keys to scroll the
screen horizontally, AUTOMATIC means that Kermit moves the screen to "catch"
incoming characters.

(End quote)  And from the KERMIT.BWR file:

(12.5) 132-COLUMN MODE

Normally, you can't use 132-column text mode in a Windows window, because
Windows takes over the graphics adapter and hides its particulars from Kermit,
but you can use it in a full screen session.  But if you want to try it in a
window anyway, tell Kermit to SET TERMINAL VIDEO-CHANGE ENABLE.  Then when a
directive is received to switch video modes, Windows might pop up a dialog box
saying that it won't let you do this in a Window session; click on OK and the
Kermit session will be switched to full-screen.

If you have a monitor with fixed horizontal frequency but a video adapter that
Kermit knows how to switch into 132 column mode, you will see only garbage on
your screen whenever Kermit switches to 132 columns.  Get a new monitor or
tell Kermit to SET TERMINAL VIDEO-CHANGE DISABLE.

On serial connections with Xon/Xoff flow control, Kermit sends Xoff and Xon
apply when commanded to change its screen size between 80 and 132 columns,
because this is often a time-consuming operation.  With RTS/CTS, Kermit turns
off RTS while the size is being changed.

See KERMIT.UPD for further information on 132-column mode.

This is probably happening because the terminal type is being renegotiated:
"My terminal type is VT320", "I don't like that one, please try another",
"OK, it's VT220", etc etc.  This is documented in section 6.2 of UPDATES.DOC.

It could be the root of all the other symptoms you have reported.
In a test on a nearby VMS system, K95's debug log includes the following:

TELNET SENT WILL TERMINAL-TYPE
TELNET SENT WILL NEGOTIATE-ABOUT-WINDOW-SIZE
TELNET RCVD DO TERMINAL-TYPE
TELNET RCVD DO NEGOTIATE-ABOUT-WINDOW-SIZE
TELNET SENT SB NAWS 80 49 IAC SE
TELNET RCVD SB TERMINAL-TYPE SEND  IAC SE
TELNET SENT SB TERMINAL-TYPE IS VT320 IAC SE  <-- We tell our terminal type

Welcome to Blah Blah VMS V6.2      <-- VMS host sends herald and prompt
Username:

So far so good.  But VMS doesn't like the VT320 terminal type, so it sends
a message asking us to try another one, so we drop down to VT220:

TELNET RCVD SB TERMINAL-TYPE SEND  IAC SE
TELNET SENT SB NAWS 80 49 IAC SE
TELNET SENT SB TERMINAL-TYPE IS VT220 IAC SE

But whenever we change terminal types we have to clear the screen.  Why?
Because different terminal types might have different dimensions, coloration,
attributes, etc, and we must initialize all of this when switching emulations.
So now the user sees a blank screen.  (Scrollback would reveal the herald
and Username: prompt on the previous screen.)  And we also have to
renogiatiate all the other stuff (screen size via NAWS, etc).

The problem is that VMS (Multinet) is trying to do all this AFTER the 
herald and Username prompt have been issued, rather than before, and that's
why the Username prompt disappears.  In this case, it would have nothing
at all to do with the NEW-ENVIRONMENT (username) negotiation.

The workaround would be to fix VMS to accept VT320 as a terminal type
(why doesn't it?), or set Kermit's emulation to VT100 or whatever it is
that VMS is expecting.

Yes, I agree. But even setting the carrier 'off' doesn't alter
anything, either with 'set modem type hayes-2400' (this keeps on
working properly) or with 'set modem type none' (this doen't get
me towards communication), as I already had tried (I guess I should
have mentioned this, sorry ...)

Now that there's a 2nd edition of the C-Kermit manual, can we expect a
new version of the Protocol manual soon too?

Once again I'm posting one of those rare things - a posting that is
actually about Kermit protocols!

The REMOTE DIRECTORY command in the server implementation in C-Kermit
6.0.192 (compiled on Linux) returns (when taking to my home-grown
implementation of the Kermit file xfer protocol) a file which
according to the attributes packet is ^M^J delimited text file but is
in fact ^M^M^J delimited.

This doesn't seem to happen when C-Kermit is talking to C-Kermit so it
must be something to do with the link charcteristics that my implementation
negotiates.

Nonetheless I think this probably counts as a bug in C-Kermit.

For some inexplicable reason (probably my own incompentance) I can't
get C-Kermit server to generate a packet.log so I can't readily
illustrate this point.  If I succede I'll post the packet.log to this
thread.

Perhaps your null modem cable does not have RTS cross-connected to CTS,

Tell it to "log packets".  It produces a file called packet.log in its

I'm going to look out where is (if there is) a list of welcome

I have to elaborate on that: in the sniffer captures of "regular"
(i.e. appearing prompt) session the sequence is, considering only visible
data and the Terminal Type option:

>From VAX                 From K95

------1st example------------------
SEND
                         IS 'VT320'

In the case that the prompt disappears this is what you see

                         IS 'VT320'          |
SEND                                         |

------2nd example------------------
SEND
<cr><lf><cr>
<lf><cr><nul>Username:

SEND
                         IS 'VT220'


It seems that the screen clearing happens when the second SEND from
the VAX is received, not when the new terminal type string is sent.

: It seems that the screen clearing happens when the second SEND from

The screen clearing occurs when the terminal reset to default settings
takes place.  This occurs during the terminal type switch which happens 
in response to a request to SEND TERMINAL-TYPE from the host.

There are two solutions to your problem:

(1) you want to use VT320 emulation even though your host doesn't
    understand the additional capabilities so you want to disable
    the terminal type switching:

	SET TELNET TERMINAL-TYPE VT220

    this tells k95 to only respond to a request for terminal type
    with the specified name.

(2) your host doesn't understand a VT320 and so doesn't want to use it.
    instead your host wants a VT220.  Therefore, in your dialer entry
    for this host or in your connect script or your K95CUSTOM.INI file
    specify your terminal type as VT220 instead of VT320.  Then the screen
    won't clear because the emulator won't require a reset.

The purpose of the terminal type negotiation is to make sure that the 
and the host can agree on a common set of rules to use for putting data
on your screen.  It is a last ditch procedure that should be used only
when the host doesn't understand the terminal emulation chosen and the
user doesn't know what emulations the host understands.

Once it is used and a emulation agreed to, the user should no longer count
on the negotiation to choose the terminal type, but should make that
terminal type the default.

Effectively : setting flow to none does the job.
Thanks for keeping an eye on what I overlooked Frank :-)
I wasn't aware that setting the modem type to none also altered
the xon/xoff setting to RTS/CTS.

	The thread is also running on the Multinet listserver. The suggestion
from TGV/Cisco is use string  vt300_series   as the terminal ident. Tried here
all in lower case and it did stick on the first query. Meanwhile TGV says
they will think about all of this.
	While it is convenient to complain to TGV we should also keep in
mind that VMS itself classes terminals by major number (100, 200, etc, or in
VMS-speak DEC_CRT, DEC_CRT2, etc) and then depends on a detailed report of 
capabilities to handle operations. This means a VT320 isn't known to VMS as
a VT320, but as a VT300_Series with certain features (variable from model to 
model of VT320 too). MS-DOS Kermit and Kermit95 know how to report these 
features and thus VMS itself is most happy with them. Below is what MSK v3.15
beta looks like to VMS v6.1 (via Multinet 4.0A):

$ sh term
Terminal: _NTY26:     Device_Type: VT300_Series  Owner: JRD
Remote Port Info: jrd.usu.edu

   Input:    9600     LFfill:  0      Width:  80      Parity: None
   Output:   9600     CRfill:  0      Page:   24

Terminal Characteristics:
   Interactive        Echo               Type_ahead         No Escape
   Hostsync           TTsync             Lowercase          Tab
   Wrap               Scope              Remote             Eightbit
   No Broadcast       No Readsync        No Form            Fulldup
   No Modem           No Local_echo      Autobaud           Hangup
   No Brdcstmbx       No DMA             No Altypeahd       Set_speed

   Advanced_video     Edit_mode          DEC_CRT            DEC_CRT2
   DEC_CRT3           No DEC_CRT4        No DEC_CRT5        Ansi_Color
   VMS Style Input
$

	Note the "Ansi_Color" which a real VT320 lacks, and "No Soft
Characters" which a real VT320 posseses. Quite a complicated set of
ingredients. But Telnet daemons ought to be a triffle smarter than this in 
accepting well known terminal identifications such as "VT320" (case 
insensitive please). Even VT3xx or VT2xx would be a good first step in
recognizing terminal kinds, where xx are any digits. To ensure MSK's 
capabilities are understood by VMS, despite Telnet Options, I add 
SET TERM/INQUIRE to the login process to request a detailed report from 
the terminal.
	We see something else in Frank's material above. Telnet Options
don't have a way of saying, "What's a VT320? I can't deal with that. What
else can you pretend to be?" and thereby indicate to the terminal emulator
to change characteristics. Instead the terminal type option query is simply
repeated, and repeated, to elicit a shopping list. That is not a good 
negotiation design (pumping dry the victim), and it ratchets one way. 
But "it's too late now."

In our neverending quest for user friendliness, we try to do more and more
things automatically when we think it is safe -- i.e. it will help lots more
people than it will confuse.  In this case, you are experiencing Kermit's
new "automatic" flow control setting.  Kermit knows a Hayes 1200 modem can't
do RTS/CTS flow control, so it doesn't try to use it.

Of course for best results you should fix your cable to be a true null modem
cable; see the diagram in "Using C-Kermit" (page 372 of 1st edition, page 494
of second edition, page 422 of German edition).  You want "Model B".

	132 column mode often fails while within a window of Windows because
Windows cannot cope with changes to the display adapter. The display adapter
video mode and characteristics change when changing screen widths. There is
nothing Kermit can do about that so I suggest you run 132 columns while in
a full screen DOS box instead.

***EASY MONEY - FAST***

THIS IS THE FAIREST MOST HONEST WAY I KNOW TO SHARE THE WEALTH!

Would you like to make thousands of dollars, quick, legally, with NO CATCH?
 Then 

keep reading...please take five minutes to read this article it will change
your life, just 

like it did mine.  It's true!  You can make up to or over $50,000 dollars
in 4-6 weeks, maybe sooner!  I SWEAR I'M NOT LYING TO YOU, AND THIS IS NOT
A SCAM!  If you're interested, keep reading; if you're not, I apologize for
wasting your time.

Here we go.  A while back, I was browsing through these newsgroups, just
like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you
could makethousands of dollars in weeks with only an intiial investment of
$5!  So, I thought, "Yeah right, must be a scam", but I was curious, like
most of us, so I kept reading.  Anyway, it said that you send $1 to each of
5 names and addresses stated in the article.  Youthen place your own name
and address in the article at the bottom of the list at #5, and post the
article in at least 200 newsgroups (there are thousands).  No catch, that
was it!


So after thinking it over, talking to a few people first, I tried it.  I
figured what have I got to lose except for 5 stamps and $5, right?

Well, guess what...within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail!  

I was shocked!  I still figured it would end soon, and didn't give it
another thought.  But then money kept coming IN, tripling in size and
multiplying by 10-20 times the amount that I got the first week!  In my
first week I made about 20 to 30 dollars.  By the end of the second week, I
had made a total of over $1,000!!!  In the third week, I had over $10,000
dollars, and it's still growing.  This is my fourth week and I've made
about $42,000 TOTAL, and the money is still coming in...

Let me tell you how this workds and most importantly, WHY it works..also,
amke sure you print a copy of the article NOW, so you get the information
off of it, and begin making money.


The process is very simple, and it consists of 3 EASY steps:

STEP:  Get 5 seperate pieces of paper and write the following on each sheet
of paper ..."PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST. YOU ARE NUMBER 4."  Get
five $1 bills and place ONE inside each piece of paper that you just wrote
on, and fold each piece of paper so the bill will not be seen in the
envelpe (otherwise, nosey people who like to steal envelopes with money in
it will get yours).  Put one paper inside the envelope and seal it.  Do the
same for all 5.  You should now have 5 envelopes sealed, EACH have a piece
of paper AND a $1 bill inside of the paper.  Make sure those words that
were stated above are stated on each paper.  What you are doing is creating
a service by this, this isPERFECTLY LEGAL.  Now then, mail the 5 envelopes
with the paper an $1 in eeach to the following 5 addresses:

1.	Nancy Shain
	Rt. 3 Box 3396
	Poplar Bluff, MO  63901

2.	Jeremiah Stuppy
	467 Enders Rd.
	Halifax, PA  17032

3.	Dan Wood
	1201-A Anderson St.
	San Clemente, CA  92672
	
4.	S. Stapleton
	6329 Hwy 135 N.
	Lake City, AR  72401

5.	K. Ward
	P.O. Box 523288
	Springfield, VA  22152

STEP 2:  Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other 4 names up (5 becoming 4, 4 becoming 3, etc.) and put YOUR NAME as
number 5 on the list.  You can slightly alter this article if you need to,
editing what you need to edit.

STEP 3:  Post your amended article (with your name at #5) to at least 200
newgroups (I think there are over 18,000 of them).  All you need is say, at
least 200.  HOW TO DO THIS: If you have Netscape 3.0 do EXACTLY  the
following:

1)  Click on any newsgroup like normal, THEN click on 'TO NEWS' which is on
the far left when you're in the newsgroups page.  This will bring up a box
to type a message in.

2)  Leave the newgroup box like it is, CHANAGE the subject box to something
flashy, like, "NEED CASH $$$ READ HERE$$$" OR "FAST CASH"!!!!

3)  Tab once and you are ready to type.  Now, retype (only once) THIS whole
article WORD FOR WORD, except to insert your name at #5, and to remove the
#1 off the list, plus any other small changes you think you need to make. 
Keep almost all of it the SAME!

4)  When you're done typing the WHOLE article, click on FILEin THIS BOX,
RIGHT ABOVE SEND, NOT WHERE IT SAYS NETSCAPE NEWS ON THE FIRST BOX.  
Click on SAVE AS when you're under FILE.  Save your article as a text file
to your C: or A: drive.  DO NOT SEND OR POST YOUR ARTICLE UNTIL YOU DO
THIS.  Once. saved, move on to number 5 below.

5)  If you still have all of your text, sned or post to this newsgroup now
by just clicking sned, shich is right below FILKE, and right above Cc:.

6)  Here's where you're going to post all 200.  OK, click on any news group
then click on 'TO NEWS', again, put a flashy subject title in the SUBJECT
BOX, hit TAB once you're in the body of the message, and then click on
ATTACHMENTS, which is below the SUBJECT BOX.  You will get another box to
come up.  Click on ATTACH FILE, then find your file that you saved; click
oncce on the file, and then click OPEN now click on OK; if you did this
right, you should see your file name in the attachment box, and it will be
shaded green.

IF YOU USE IE EXPLORER, IT'S JUST AS EASY....HOLDING DOWN THE LEFT MOUSE
BUTTON, HIGHLIGHT THIS ARTICLE.  THEN PRESS THE "CTRL" KEY AND THE "C" KEY
AT THE SAME TIME TO COPY THIS ARTICLE.  THEN PRINT THIS ARTICLE FOR YOUR
RECORDS TO HAVE THE NAMES OF THOSE YOU WILL BE SENDING $1 BILLS TO.  NEXT
GO TO THE NEWS GROUPS AND PRESS "POST AN ARTICLE," A WINDOW WILL OPEN. 
TYPE YOUR HEADLINE IN SUBJECT AREA AND CLICK IN LARGE WINDOW BELOW.  PRESS
"CTRL" AND THEN "V" AND THE ARTICLE WILL BE PLACED IN THE WINDOW.  IF YOU
WANT TO EDIT THE ARTICLE, DO SO AND THEN HIGHLIGHT AND COPY IT AGAIN.  NOW
EVERYTIME YOU POST THE ARTICLE IN A NEW NEWSGROUP, YOU ONLY HAVE TO REPEAT
"CTRL" AND "V" AND PRESS POST.

7)  That's it.  Each time you do this, all you have to do is type in a
different newsgroup, so that way, it posts to 200 DIFFERENT newsgroups, you
see?  Now you just have 199 to go!  (Don't worry, each one takes about 30
seconds, once you get

keyboard verbs.  I noticed that the verbs \Kansif01 through
\Kansif61 are not listed in table I-5 of the K-95 users guide,

The emulation specific kverbs are assigned to the Terminal Specific 
Key maps.  Look in KEYMAP/DEFAULT.INI to see their assignments.

Ive modified an existing macro for dialing in to a dialback modem. When
the dialback occurs, an "INPUT" command is executed, and the message
"Cant condition line for input" appears five times (there are siz input
commands after dialback). The message "Connecting to cua0" etc apperas,
script file is finished as kermit now expects input from keyboaard.

Inserting "WAIT" command only delays modem from answering dialback.

I've checked the FAQ and "Using C-Kermit". Any suggestions?

Text of the macro follows:

 define mdialback -
  dial \%1, -
  while fail { sleep 30 , redial}, -
  sleep 5, -
  output \13, -
  input 30 login:, -
  output whoami\13, -
  input 30 Password:, -
  output whatami\13, -
{THIS IS THE POINT AT WHICH DIALBACK OCCURS}

I am a novice user of Kermit.  What I'm having problems with is dialing 
in to my mainframe (VAX) at work and sending files via Kermit to my home 
PC.  The problem is with specific application type files (i.e. a Lotus 
1-2-3 spreadsheet).  My problem is that my Lotus software won't recognize 
the file after I Kermit it down.  My guru at work set I needed to issue 
the command SET FILE TYPE BINARY from the host Kermit, but that doesn't 
seem to have done the trick.  Are the semantics of the above command 
wrong?  What should the proper command be?  Any help anyone could give to 
this true rookie would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

On every system other than VMS BINARY would do the trick.  But because
of VMS's file system types you need to use SET FILE TYPE IMAGE on the VMS
side to get a true BINARY transfer.

I have one more problem with Kermit95 v1.1.8

If I press F2 or Shift/PrintScreen I only occasionally get an ordinary
copy of the screen on my printer: I more often have only a half print
screen, that means the leftmost 40 columns. If I look at the network I
see that 80 bytes per line are sent, but after every character there
is a byte '07'. 

Any ideas? thank you

I have managed to force VMS to accept 'VT320' as a _good_ string and
it seems all is working corrctly now. Details available for interested
people.

So this means you are probably using C-Kermit?  Which version?
On which platform?

Anyway, the trick of handling dialback situations is that you
have to hang up the modem after making the call, so it can call
you back.  If you don't hang it up, it will just get a busy
signal.

Right.  Your guru at work should read the manual, "Using C-Kermit", in which
the situation with VMS Lotus spreadsheets, VMS ZIP files, and the like, is
explained on page 412 (1st Edition), 535-536 (2nd Edition), or 463 (German
edition).  Look up "Lotus" in the index.

It is a bug in version 1.1.8 only.  It does not happen in 1.1.7, and it
will be fixed in 1.1.9, which will be released shortly as a patch.

Sorry, I should have been more complete. I'm running C-Kermit on a Sparc
10/50 under SunOS 4.1.3. While the dialback is not getting a busy
signal, I think the problem is similiar; the answering modem isn't
answering until the "INPUT" command times out. I've currently got it
kind of working by doing one macro for dialout, then "HANGUP", then
another macro for dialback answer (which can't be executed until the
modems have finished negotiating). Can this somehow be automated into
one macro?

I'm sure it can be, but I don't have access to your setup to try it.
I think the problem you had before was that C-Kermit was holding on to
its end of the original phone call.  The service on the other end hung
up, but C-Kermit was still trying to use it (e.g. by issuing INPUT
commands).  But since the other end had hung up, there was no more carrier
and so the device driver was returning errors when you gave the INPUT,
OUTPUT, or similar commands, and in any case the modem was not conditioned
to answer the call-back.

I'd suggest you install C-Kermit 6.0 on your Sun and then have your script
use the new ANSWER command.  So in outline, it would look like this:

  dial xxxxxxx
  if fail ...
  (put input/output dialog here)
  hangup
  answer xxx  ; xxx = number of seconds to wait for call
  if fail ...

At this point, you should have a usable connection.  For info about
C-Kermit 6.0, see:

Procomm Plus for Windows 95 and DEC PDP8 running Kermit 

I have purchased a copy of Procomm Plus for Windows 95 to communicate
through a RS-232 serial port (COM2) on a 486 PC running Windows 95.  The
PC communicates to a DEC PDP8 microcomputer with a serial card.  The
file transfer protocol is Kermit.  I can send files successfully from
the DEC PDP8 to the PC but I cannot send files from the PC to the PDP8. 
The error message that is printed at the bottom of the screen on Procomm
is "Packet Type Unknown".  

I acquired the version of Kermit for the DEC PDP8 at the
columbia.edu/kermit site.  The source is in assembly and the only
modifications made to it was the baud rate.
  
The settings of the Kermit Protocol in Procomm Plus for Windows 95 is as
follows : 
(Note : These are changed from the default settings.)

Procomm Plus Win 95 Kermit Options

9600Baud,  N-8-1
Binary File Transfer
Control Quote		35
Pad Char		0
End of Line		13
8th Bit Quota		38
Block Start		1
Max Packet		94
# of Pad Char		0
Block Check Type	1 Byte Checksum
Handshake Char.		Not shown on this menu.


We have an earlier DOS version of Procomm Plus 1.1B that is able to
transfer files successfully in both directions using Kermit.  The
settings are as follows :

Procomm Plus Ver 1.1B Kermit Options
9600Baud,  N-8-1
Binary File Transfer
Control Quote		35
Pad Char		0
End of Line		13
8th Bit Quota		38
Block Start		Not an option on this version of Procomm.
Max Packet		94
# of Pad Char		0
Block Check Type	1 Byte Checksum
Handshake Char.		0

Please note again, the DOS version of Procomm Plus 1.1B works fine in
both directions, the new Windows 95 32 bit version only receives the
files successfully from the PDP8.  The Windows 95 version is not able to
transfer to the PDP8 with the above settings.

Quarterdeck (Procomm) is useless as far as technical support.  Their
phone lines are always busy and their FAX # for tech support has been
disconnected.  There is not even an email for tech support on their web
site.

The PC in question replaces a DEC PDP11 that was being used as a file
server to the PDP8 which runs a piece of an old GenRad Circuit Card Test
Tester. 

Thank you for your time and any help would be much appreciated.
Please email your responses.

Probably Procomm Kermit is sending a packet type that it did not negotiate
successfully with PDP-8 Kermit.  Procomm is not noted for the correctness
or configurability of its Kermit implementation.

We don't support Procomm -- they have your money, they should give you
the support you paid for; we have our own products, which we do support.
The Kermit software for Windows 95 is Kermit 95:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/k95.html

Every feature of its file-transfer protocol execuction is configurable, and
it has all sorts of debugging and troubleshooting features built in,  so I
would be very surprised if we could not get to work with PDP-8 Kermit.

I'm using Kermit version 3.14 for terminel emulation to a SCO Unix machine via a TCP/IP 
network. Before i installed Windows 95 i had no problems starting the packet-drivers 
needed for Kermit.

After i installed Windows 95 i can't get the packet-driver started in a DOS session 
because it hangs up the computer. Shutting down W95 to DOS is not a solution, because 
all the datafiles i need are on a Windows NT machine (also via the network).

Regards,

Gert-Jan Naaktgeboren.

   I am using ckermit to call up a computer and download data using a script file with SET
INPUT ECHO ON. 
this allows the user to be able to see the script file go through the different menus and thus
be able to see the progress of the downloading process. When these menus appear, they will
have a solid line border around them, consisting of extended ascii characters. but instaed
where horizontal lines shouls appear, qqqqqqqqqqq appears instead; vertical line segments are
represented by x, left upper corners are represented by l , and so on. Can anyone advise me
as to how to correct this problem? Thank you.

      P.S. The script file session does not go into connect mode; when term emulation vt220
is used and ckermit is in connect mode; everything appears as it should.

You did not say which version of Kermit you are using on what platform and
operating system.  However, it is true in general -- and noted in the
documentation -- that Kermit's terminal emulator is NOT active during
script processing.  In some cases, you can still have your screen formatted
more or less as expected while echoing script material ("set input echo on")
if your window or console driver emulates the type of terminal that the
remote host is sending escape sequences for.

If that is not possible in your case, then perhaps it would be better to
"set input echo off" and simply print ("echo") informative progress messages
for the user.

I was wondering if anyone has used Greenleaf's CommLib product for a 
kermit implementation? Can this be used to write a kermit program
to communicate with a kermit server on the other end of a serial line?

John Chandler asked me to pass this along:

It was brought to my attention that the prepackaged installation
procedure for Kermit-CMS (called IKCINS EXEC) would hit an
arithmetic overflow if anyone tried to install Kermit on a minidisk
or SFS directory pool bigger than 2 GB (because 2 billion is the
biggest integer that fits in a signed 32-bit word).  A new version of
the EXEC has been placed in the distribution file ikcker.ins to avoid
this problem.

For MS-DOS Kermit users...  A small collection of Sixel graphics files, most
of them from John G. Zvonar, of Austin, Texas, along with John's program
PCX2SIX.EXE, a DOS program to convert Windows PCX (PC Paintbrush) files to
Sixel format, for display by MS-DOS Kermit's REPLAY command, or for display
through MS-DOS Kermit's terminal emulator from the host.  Of course, you can
also display them on any real VTxxx graphics terminal (e.g. VT340), or print
them on a Sixel printer.

For those who don't know, Sixels are a compact way of transmitting raster
graphics -- color or monochrome -- using ANSI-format escape sequences.

The Sixel files, programs, and documentation are in:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/sixel/

Thanks to John for contributing this material to the Kermit archive.  If
anyone else has some nice Sixel examples for the gallery, let me know.

MSKermit 3.14 is quite happy on a serial connection under Win95.
I don't think there is any way to make it work under Win95-TCP.

It seems this question has been asked recently, but I would also like to
know if there exists a set of source code (or function libraries) in C
that would allow me to send and receive files using the Kermit protocol
within my windows application.

If somebody could send me any suggestions, I would appreciate it.

Sorry, no, we do not furnish such a library.  We recommend that those who
wish to embed communications functions -- connection establishment, logging
in and other dialogs, file management, data transfer -- do so by invoking
an existing Kermit program -- MS-DOS Kermit for DOS or Windows 3.x,
Kermit 95 for Windows 95 or NT, C-Kermit for UNIX or VMS, etc -- from within
their application by a combination of command-line arguments and command
files (Kermit script programs).  The situation might change in the future,
but for now that is the answer.

I want to use Pegasus email as an email tool for some field personel.
It will run on their DOS laptops, but does not include a transfer protocol.
They currenlty use MSKermit to dial in to a Unix box, and use C-Kermit to
up and download other data.

I see some "mail" keywords in "Using C-Kermit", but this looks like a
one-way tool.

Are there some tools floating around that might help me here, or do I need
to go to a BBS, like "Waffle", suggested by Pegasus for this use?

Currently, the users just visit a very simple upload/download menu.
I don't want to use online Unix email due to the time constraints for our
limited modem pool.

I can't give you step-by-step instructions, but I have heard from various
people who have used Kermit as the transport underneath email systems,
including between Pegasus and Kermit:  MS-DOS Kermit under Pegasus, and
C-Kermit on UNIX.  The uploading and downloading of mail is done by an
MS-DOS Kermit script, as well as making and closing the connection,
authentication, and so forth.

Anybody out there who has done this is encouraged to share their experience
and/or scripts.

	There's a danger I am undershooting the question with this answer.
If the Greenleaf library is used to move bytes to/from the serial port
then that's fine.
	I have no idea about their Kermit protocol support, but then you
wanted to write that part yourself.

I hope that you know your GOD loves you, no matter what GOD you believe in.
Thank your GOD for life and ask your GOD to let you live as your GOD would want
you to. When we look closely at GOD we begin to realize that we all believe in the
same GOD, we may see GOD in different ways, but GOD will always be GOD. There
can only be one GOD, and that one GOD loves us all, and wants nothing but the
best for us. If your in doubt, just remember GOD works in mysterious ways, there is
a reason for everything...

God thank you.

Using kermit from within Telix I get a very slow cps rate, about 300.  My 
connection will obviously handle much more than that.  I have looked at 
my settings, but I don't know what changes to try.  Packet length is 90 
but I don't see how it would be the cause.

It this the appropriate place to ask this, or are there better 
sites/mailing lists, etc.?

Please reply to: reindl@aem.umn.edu, or here.

Thanks.

Telix has only a minimal Kermit implementation; see the benchmarks in:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/perf.html
  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/e/perf.doc

or our FAQ:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/faq.html
  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/faq.txt

If you want fast Kermit file transfer you need to have a better Kermit
implementation, like the ones found in Kermit software from the Kermit
Project, including MS-DOS Kermit for DOS and Windows 3.x, Kermit 95 for
Windows 95 and NT, C-Kermit for UNIX, etc:

Running K95 1.1.7...
I loaded a cute little gizmo from microsoft.com that allows me to change
screen resolutions without rebooting.
Now I notice (perhaps coincidence), that the screen created when I invoke
a connection from the K-95 Dialer has no toolbar, and the size is messed
up.  I never have been able to figure out how to get the size I want, but
the standard one was always okay until today ;-(

The MSDOS window created from the start-program item is still the size that
it (and K95) used to be.

I patched to K95 1.1.8, but the screen size is still bad, not that I
expected it to change.

The only decent screen now is to hit alt-enter and go to full screen, but I
don't like that as much as the somehat smaller maximized window that I used
to have.

We have a person here that has been keying on a VT terminal and very used
to two sounds on one application she uses a lot.  One sound when she has
entered all the data, another when she makes an error.  (K95 ver 1.18)

She gets the same sound with both instances with K95 and is not happy.
I changed the sound in one place (default sound I think) and both changed
to the new sound.  Is there anything I can do to make her happy other than
give her terminal back?

Not a coincidence.  When you change resolutions you invalidate the previous
settings for the default windows.

Go to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder and edit the properties for CONAGENT.EXE.
This is the app whose settings are used when creating a new instance of
Kermit-95 or any other Win32 Console application.

Because it is a 16-bit DOS application and uses an old fashioned PIF file.

See above.

The terminal window can only generate one sound (beep) because it is only
responding to BEL characters from the host.

K95 for all other purposes uses three sounds.  You can test them from the 
command prompt with BEEP { INFORMATION, WARNING, ERROR }

I just recently upgraded to 6.0.192, 6 Sep 96, Solaris 2.x, on my SS20 running
Solaris 2.4 (5.4 Generic_101945-43) w/ all recommended patches from SUN.  I
did this upgrade mainly to get around the Solaris 2.x "known bug" with the
Port Monitor on bi-directional modems.  I already know of the 'pmadm -e' work
around, but from reading the documentation (and the source) it seems like an
attempt was made to make kermit work properly with the Solaris 2.x
bidirectional port monitor.  The following excerpt from the ckuker.bwr file in
the current distribution:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: The rest of the problems in this section have to do with bidirectional
  tty lines and the Solaris Port Monitor.  Hopefully these are all fixed in
  C-Kermit 6.0.192 Beta.029, 22 Aug 96.
 
...
 
Still later (Nov 94): another user (Bo Kullmar in Sweden) reports that after
using C-Kermit to dial out on a bidirectional port, the port might not answer
subsequent incoming calls, and says "the problem is easy enough to to fix with
the Serial Port Manager; I just delete the service and and install it again
using the graphical interface, which underneath uses commands like sacadm and
pmadm."  Later Bo reports, "I have found that if I run Kermit with the
following script then it works.  This script is for /dev/cua/a, -s a is the
last a in /dev/cua/a
 
  #! /bin/sh
  kermit
  sleep 2
  surun pmadm -e -p zsmon -s a
 
(end quote)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
However, for me, the behavior with 6.0.192 is exactly the same as with the
older 5A versions of kermit.  After dialing out with kermit, the modem will
still answer for dialins, but the login prompts aren't given.  running
pmadm -e ... fixes it, but this fixed it with 5A versions as well!

Frank da Cruz <fdc@watsun.cc.columbia.edu> from the kermit-support group has
been very helpful, and mentioned that there were many other bugs with Solaris
(like crashing the kernel) that 5A(190) had but 6.0.192 doesn't.  However, the
ckuker.bwr file seems to suggest that my problem is fixed too.

Frank reiterated that kermit makes no attempt to talk to Solaris' NON-STANDARD
SAC and that kermit-support recommends that one user wrappers to reset the
bi-directionality after using kermit.

I have no problem using the wrapper, if that is the only way.  However, Frank
also said the following to me in email:

  By the way, as soon as I announced 6.0.192, I got mail back from several
  Solaris users who were happy as can be because the problems they were having
  did indeed go away.  But again, I think these were the other problems of
  the more serious nature (which were not, to my knowledge, Kermit's fault to
  begin with, because the same code ran harmlessly on numerous non-Solaris
  platforms).

So, my question is to anyone using kermit 6.0.192, 6 Sep 1996 on Solaris 2.x:
Do you sill have to run the pmadm -e command to fix a bi-directional port
after using kermit?  I just want to know if I can configure eeprom, ttymon,
etc. differently  so I don't have to use pmadm -e after each kermit use.
(It would make things easier, as I wouldn't need to sudo from pmadm etc.)

Finally, I would like to thank Frank da Cruz for all his expedient help on
this matter.  I tend to agree with him that if SUN insists on using the
proprietary SAC, they should at least give an API so that programs like kermit
can be used to dialout and work just as well as cu & co. supplied from the
vendor.

I have not yet done it, but im just working for a system to download my new mail via 
this kind of chain: 
- in home: laptop, Kermit 3.14, and modem (9600)
- in university computer center: Unix, ftp
- in my faculty: Novell network, Pegasus, ftp-server

Planned action: 
1. I connect to Unix with modem and Kermit 
2. I connect from Unix to Novell with FTP
3. I download from my own maildirectory all new message files first by ftp to Unix 
and then by Kermit to laptop.
All this should be scripted to Kermit(???)
Then I read the messages with an editor (I think I must try to find an ofline reader 
or make such with qbasic) and write posible answers.
The answers and other new mail I then upload to Unix with Kermit's Mail-command - or 
as files and send them with Pine.

Any comments?

I will inform you how I succeed with this plan...

In Dos Kermit 3.14 there seems not to be any variable arrays proper 
(like in basic x$(i) where i index can be changin number), are there?

Do you know any work arounds for this (e.g. to define the name of a 
variable to a numerical value)?

I would have much use for this feature in my scripts: select file names 
from a directory listing is maybe the most important; then making 
easily editable option lists; maybe a tiny editor; etc.

thank you

No, there are not.

Arrays have been added in version 3.15, now in Beta test.  They are
exactly the same as in C-Kermit.  Like C-Kermit, it will also have FOR
loops, etc.  For example, here is a how to declare a 200-element array
and then assign a value to each member:

  declare \&a[200]

  for \%i 1 200 1 {
     assign \&a[\%i] \%i
  }

MS-DOS Kermit 3.15 Beta 8 is available at:

An anonymous persion tried to post the following, but failed:

    Has  anyone successfully uploaded from a Solaris Sun System, running
    UNIX OS (or Linux or U*IX) , used KERMIT (any version) to upload an
    ASCII firmware file to a Microcom Deskporte FAST Modem?

    If so, would you mind sharing the steps necessary to do so. 

    If your tried and failed, can you tell me why it might fail?

    I'm not too sure about How Kermit transfers files in ASCII mode. Does
    the version of Kermit used under UNIX support a "single ended" ASCII
    transfer?

The command for this in C-Kermit is "transmit".  It's designed for use only
with text files, but with some care it can also be used to upload a binary
file.

    I have used basic forms of ASCII in the DEC DOS world to DEC VMS, and
    DEC PDP11, and MS-Kermit to DEC VMS, but never tried to use it to pass a
    file without another Kermit on the other end.

    I would think it would be similar to transferring a file to a serial
    port, like a serial printer or to an LPT printer port.

There is a chapter in "Using C-Kermit" about it.  If the modem doesn't
support Kermit, though, you might be better off trying another protocol;
some of them support XMODEM.  But then you have the problem of finding a
version of XMODEM that lets you transfer files on an assigned serial device
rather than /dev/tty.

Thank you for the input, but i did fail to mention a couple of steps in
the process. For example, If I were to use something like ProCom or
Crosstalk (under DOS or Windows), the process becomes:
- Log onto the port. Issue RTS/CTS command to the modem.
- Issue a special AT command (at^h) to the modem (at which point the
modem    'waits' for the ascii file transfer to begin. Not ulike
programming a 	EEROM.
- "Select" or "Click" on FILE TRANSFER, ASCII Upload. 
	At which point the protocol is strictly ascii transfer because it is 
reprogramming the eeram (nvram).

In attempting to emulate this process using MS-Kermit V3.14, after
setting up the mscustom.ini file, then issuing the CONNECT command, then
AT^H (that special command) ... 

Or is TRANSMIT just available in C-Kermit?

Hopefully, this will be clearer. I also did not locate this in MS-Kermit
V3.00? by  C. Gianone from Digital Press (ca. 1991)

Thanks,

It's the subject of Chapter 12.

Just try it:

 1. In CONNECT mode, type AT^H and then press the Enter key.

 2. Escape back to the MS-DOS Kermit prompt with Alt-X.

 3. Type "transmit xxx", where xxx is the filename.

I'm not sure what you're supposed to do to indicate to the modem that
the transfer is complete, but I assume you have directions for that.

If the above works, you're done.  If it doesn't, then read about the SET
TRANSMIT command to customize how TRANSMIT works.  If it still doesn't work,
get back to us with specific symptoms, questions, etc.

I have the following problem with msk315b9.exe. I have a Paradise
Autoswitch EGA card attached to a monochrom monitor. In mono EGA or
autoswitch mode, connecting and then switching to graphics mode and back
to text mode again (e.g., using Alt-=DF on a German keyboard) locks up the
PC. This does not happen with v3.14.

The PC is a 286 with 640+384K, under DOS (not Windows). himem.sys is
loaded, as is a packet driver (ne2000 compatible ether card). There are
256 K of memory on the graphics card.=20

The crash happens with SET TERM EXPANDED OFF. The PC has no expanded
memory. However, with SET TERM EXPANDED EXTENDED, switching between
graphics and text no longer causes a crash, but the graphics screen
becomes totally corrupted.

I was able to reproduce this on two other different machines: a 386 with a
VGA card and a 486 with a SVGA card. The EGA card on the 286 and the SVGA
card on the 486 use WD chipsets, and it is possible that the VGA card on
the 386 also does. Also, all 3 are fitted with NE2000 compatible ether
cards, although the packet drivers may be different versions.=20

Unfortunately, Joe Doupnik hasn't been able to reproduce this on the
machines he has access to. I wonder if somebody with a similar
configuration (WD graphics/NE2000 ether) can verify that this crash does
occur.

Please Cc: any replies to me. Thanks,

Carlos

P.S.: If I understand it correctly, NE2000 cards are IO mapped, not memory
mapped, so a memory conflict should not be the case.

Amazingly enough, we don't have one.  We have 13 other CP/M-86 species
however, in two major geni -- the Columbia U version (C86) and the Birmingham
U version (CN8), all in the kermit/c directory on kermit.columbia.edu

CN8 C  Argos Pro PC     CCPM86     ASM86        2.9   86/04/10  Birmingham U

It should be fairly easy to modify one of these to work on the PC -- I'd
recommend the NEC APC version, as the NEC APC is probably closest to the IBM
PC of all the non-compatibles listed above.

I recall that someone was working on an IBM PC version but cancelled the
project when it became apparent that MS/PC-DOS was going to make CP/M-86
"irrelevant".  I'll make some inquiries; maybe there is a partially completed
version lurking somewhere.

Kermit only knows how to talk to a computer -- which includes a modem's
command interface.  Note that voicemail systems do not send carrier.  It is
a voice connection.  Anything that you do along these lines would be a
function of your modem's dialing capabilities (see your modem manual, the
section on dial modifiers).  If you can do it by hand at the modem's
command processer, then making a Kermit script is a simple matter of sending
the same characters that you would have typed.

Sending pages is another matter, see the Kermit FAQ:

Subject: Announcing Kermit 95 1.1.9

Version 1.1.9 of Kermit 95 is now available as a patch to versions 1.1.7
or 1.1.8.  The main purpose of this release is to correct several annoying
bugs in the 1.1.8 release, most of them artifacts of the Unicode conversion,
notably:

 . Page faults when "set terminal character-set transparent" was used
 . Keyboard character-set translation problems
 . Broken Hebrew and Russian keyboard modes
 . Broken dead-key and Alt-Gr support
 . Broken Latin-2 Compose key
 . Broken print-screen and transparent-print functions
 . Some problems with HP2621 emulation
 . VMS SET TERM/WIDTH=xxx did not always clear screen

plus several other lower-profile bugs.

There are also a few new features, including:

 . Improved horizontal scrolling
 . EDIT, SET EDITOR, SHOW EDITOR and a new "netedit" feature
 . XSEND32 utility for sending directory trees
 . Support for host WordPerfect private character-set designation
 . (Partial) HPTERM emulation (Hewlett Packard "term0")
 . (Partial) Honeywell VIP7809 emulation
 . SET SEND DOUBLE-CHARACTER and SET RECEIVE IGNORE-CHARACTER

The last two items are for compatibility with MS-DOS Kermit, and are used
for accessing and transferring files with Honeywell DPS-6 mainframes.
Kermit's VIP7809 emulation is just a minor modification to VT102 involving
the "what are you?" query and response and does not, at this time, claim to
be true VIP terminal emulation.  The SET SEND/RECEIVE commands are useful
for helping file transfers to work through communication front ends that use
a printable character (like @) as an escape character (like the old ARPAnet
TIP or TAC), and for stripping out line-folding control characters that have
been inserted into incoming packets, e.g. by an X.3 PAD or a DPS-6 front end.

HPTERM emulation is the basic Hewlett Packard "Term0" specification used by
the hpterm X-terminal on HP workstations, and compatible with most actual HP
terminal types.  It is quite serviceable, but at present lacks color, key
labels, and a few other features, to be filled in later on if demand warrants.

The horizontal scrolling item is to compensate for the Windows 95 bug that
prevents use of 132-column (or other odd-size) windows in Console mode.
Kermit 95 now lets you have a 132-column "logical" screen within an
80-column "physical" screen, and then gives you keyboard verbs (that can be
assigned to any keys or key combinations) to scroll left and right, plus new
indicators on the status line to let you know where you are, horizontally
speaking.  This is the ONLY way to have wide console screens without
crashing the application or Windows 95 itself, and it should hold the fort
until the GUI version arrives (still coming!).  (REMEMBER -- there are no
problems at all with 132-column-mode in Kermit 95 on Windows NT.)

A form of "network editing" has been added, which lets you type a command
to Kermit 95 or to the remote computer (the one you are talking to in your
terminal screen) that automatically downloads a file to your PC, loads it
into your preferred Windows editor, and then uploads it again automatically
after you're finished editing it.

We've also included a new XSEND program for Windows 95 and NT.  When you
run it in a particular directory, it builds a Kermit 95 script to send and
replicate the entire directory tree of which the current directory is root,
to another computer that has a Kermit server.  The other computer can be
UNIX, VMS, OS/2, DOS, or even another Windows 95 system.

HOW TO GET IT

The new release can be ordered in shrink-wrapped or bulk- or site-licensed
form from Columbia University.  All orders received starting today will be
filled with version 1.1.9.  (Yes, we said that about 1.1.8 on November 21,
but because a the bugs listed above, that surfaced just after it was
released, we continued to ship 1.1.7 until 1.1.9 could be completed.)

Find Kermit 95 ordering information at:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/k95.html

Current registered users of Kermit 95 can download the 1.1.9 upgrade patch
from our BBS or from our ftp site:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/k95/patches/

or on the Web:

  http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/k95patch.html

All the new features are documented in the updated UPDATES.DOC file that
comes in the patch, and in the updated BUGS.DOC file.

Incidentally, in case any of you missed the announcements, the host-side
counterpart of Kermit 95 -- C-Kermit 6.0 for UNIX, VMS, AOS/VS, etc -- was
released a couple weeks ago.  Kermit 95 and C-Kermit 6.0 make a great team.

Thank you for the input, but i did fail to mention a couple of steps in
the process. For example, If I were to use something like ProCom or
Crosstalk (under DOS or Windows), the process becomes:
- Log onto the port. Issue RTS/CTS command to the modem.
- Issue a special AT command (at^h) to the modem (at which point the
modem    'waits' for the ascii file transfer to begin. Not ulike
programming a 	EEROM.
- "Select" or "Click" on FILE TRANSFER, ASCII Upload. 
	At which point the protocol is strictly ascii transfer because it is 
reprogramming the eeram (nvram).

In attempting to emulate this process using MS-Kermit V3.14, after
setting up the mscustom.ini file, then issuing the CONNECT command, then
AT^H (that special command) ... 

Or is TRANSMIT just available in C-Kermit?

Hopefully, this will be clearer. I also did not locate this in MS-Kermit
V3.00? by  C. Gianone from Digital Press (ca. 1991)

Thanks,

Bob

It's the subject of Chapter 12.

Just try it:

 1. In CONNECT mode, type AT^H and then press the Enter key.

 2. Escape back to the MS-DOS Kermit prompt with Alt-X.

 3. Type "transmit xxx", where xxx is the filename.

I'm not sure what you're supposed to do to indicate to the modem that
the transfer is complete, but I assume you have directions for that.

If the above works, you're done.  If it doesn't, then read about the SET
TRANSMIT command to customize how TRANSMIT works.  If it still doesn't work,
get back to us with specific symptoms, questions, etc.

MS-DOS Kermit 3.15 Beta 10 is now available for testing (there was no
formal Beta 9).  New features:

 . Add built-in Cyrillic support for the terminal emulator:
   SET TERMINAL CHARACTER-SET { CYRILLIC-ISO, KOI8, SHORT-KOI },
   SET TERMINAL CODE-PAGE CP866.  Previously this was done with command
   files (lots of SET TRANSLATE INPUT and SET KEY commands), but that did
   not work well with ISO 2022 character-set designation and invocation
   (G0, G1, G2, G3 switching, VT220 line-drawing characters, etc).

 . Modify commands ASSIGN, DEFINE, UNDEFINE, _ASSIGN, and _DEFINE for the
   syntax expressing array names.  Each permits expressions and variables
   within the [index] field.  Assign, define, and undefine do not permit
   substitution in the spelling of the array name of \&<character>; _assign
   and _define do permit it.

 . Add keyword IF to the list for command CHECK.  CHECK IF reports that
   extended IF statements are present.

 . Add UNDEFINE variable/macro to undefine an item. This is the same as the
   DEFINE command with no definition text.

 . Add XECHO string to display the string without the leading CR/LF.

 . Add variable \v(connection) which always returns string "local".

 . Add function \fbasename(filename) which returns the filename without
   its drive letter and path prefix.

 . Keyboard definitions to invoke named macros had used definitions of the
   form {\kmacro-name}. The surrounding curly braces are no longer required,
   but they may be used with older material.  This also means the syntax for
   specifying keyboard "verbs" and macros is now the same.

Corrections:

 . SET KEY \xxx {\Kmacroname} was broken in earlier betas.

 . DEC User Defined Keys returned illegally and crashed the program.

 . Correct a small bug with processing DEC Sixel graphics.

 . SET PRINTER to a file which could not be opened crashed the program.

 . LOCAL list of \%<char> variables failed to skip items in the list which
   were not of the form \%<char>.

 . Revise the TCP/IP protocol stack code to be less agressive in sending long
   groups of packets but more agressive in responding to network
   congestion.  The result should be fast transfers with fewer packets lost
   from too many packets per second on the wire.

 . Add code to catch errors of delivering TCP/IP packets from the LAN adapter
   driver to Kermit. The error of interest is when a packet buffer is
   allocated from Kermit but the LAN driver fails to signal that the buffer
   has been filled with a new packet.  Failures are visible when command SET
   TCP DEBUG ON is given, and they may be made invisible but recorded in the
   Transaction log if command LOG TRANSACTION filename is stated.
 
 . Included in the TCP debug information are arriving ARP broadcasts (good for
   testing if the LAN adapter is still receiving) and IP packet transit time
   details. For specialists, the timing details appear as lines like this
   example, where fields are:

     time=2093 rtt=1 avg=0 std_dev=1 s->rto=5

   time since the TCP stack started, current IP packet round trip time (rtt),
   smoothed average rtt, standard deviation of the difference, and the round
   trip timeout, all in units of Bios clock ticks (18.2 of them per
   second). Message "Failed to put packet on wire" is written if the lan
   adapter is unable to perform a transmission requests; Kermit retries the
   attempt.

 . Add a test for Control-C or Control-BREAK being typed while waiting for a
   TCP byte stream to be delivered to the remote host.  This is an attempt to
   break free of waiting while Kermit file transfer packets are held back
   because TCP is waiting for an ACK to previously sent material.  Such waits
   can be several minutes in bad cases.  This test is of limited usefulness.

 . Fill in a Reverse ARP request field which is normally empty and ignored but
   might be looked at anyway.

 . Fixed a problem which crashes the program when going between text and
   graphics screens when neither extended nor expanded memory is used to
   preserve the graphics screen.

To get it:

Anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia.edu, directory kermit/test/bin, binary mode,
file msk315.zip.  ZIP file contains the executable, MSK315.EXE, and a brief
description of the changes since version 3.14, MSK315.DOC.

Report problems via email to kermit@columbia.edu.

Thanks, as always, to Joe D.

Thanks, Frank.
I did try it. At first, I thought the SET PROMPT \0
(binary "0" prompt referred to the SENDING  terminal host. For whatever reason, 
the eerom device doesn't issue back the <cr> character, and sitting there and 
issuing "carriage returns" (pressing enter key, etc.)  just won't cut the 
mustard on this one (the file is 300K+ bytes arranged on 32 character lines).
It appears if I can get around this requirement, then maybe it'll work as hoped.

I'll be off this project for about three weeks, but will try again later.
Again, Thanks for the information. 

On another tone. Kermit 95. Does it use the Windows 95 TAPI or the default 
COMM.DRV printer driver?

Reason I ask is that the Deskporte FAST Modems (by Microcom) can use either ther 
serial comm port (com1: to com9:) or the LPTn: port using PPM.VXD or PPM.DRV for 
the old Windows 3.x 16 bit leagacy programs. PPM.DRV will ONLY work if COMM.DRV 
is the comm driver. (DOS Drivers won't work at all! in parallel mode).

Thanks, Bob

No, it just tells Kermit not to wait for any prompt (response, echo) at all
after sending a line before it sends the next line.  This is, of course,
assuming that the file you are TRANSMIT'ing has lines at all.

Normally the TRANSMIT command waits for a linefeed (ASCII 10) before sending
the next line.  If the EEROM (EEPROM?) echos something else, then specify
that in your SET TRANSMIT PROMPT command.  Hint:  Use SET DEBUG SESSION to
see invisible control characters.  Maybe it uses Ctrl-Q or something.
If it doesn't echo anything specific after receiving each line, then the only
other choice is to SET TRANSMIT PROMPT \0 and hope for the best.  That should
make Kermit simply blast the entire file out the port.  (The only difference
between this and "copy /b filename com1" in DOS is that Kermit provides
flow control -- in case the modem also knows how to do it.)

By the way, you didn't say much about the format of the file.  If it contains
any 8-bit characters, be sure to "set terminal byte 8" and "set terminal
character-set transparent".

Occasionally, I see the message "TRANSMISSION BLOCKED" when using K95 over
a serial connection at 28.8
Or at least on a 28.8 modem.  I very rarely connect at 26400, usually at
24000, sometimes at 21600.
Because of these connect rates, and the fact that I live about 12 miles
from the C.O., I suspect that the message has something to do with modem
retries.  True?  And what is it doing when it counts down?
Sometimes, at the end of the countdown, I see queued characters go by,
sometimes I get disconnected.
I also see this message when I am using the Kermit-mouse to cut and paste
some text, but I figured that was okay.

It means you are using RTS/CTS flow control and the modem has turned off its
CTS signal.  So "transmission" is "blocked" :-)  Why?  Could be the modems
are retraining, could be they are furiously retransmitting V.42 packets
between each other, could be the remote modem is flow controlled by the
remote DTE.

: And what is it doing when it counts down?
:
It keeps checking to see whether the blocked condition persists for fifteen
seconds.

: Sometimes, at the end of the countdown, I see queued characters go by,
: sometimes I get disconnected.
:
If the condition persists after 15 seconds, Kermit tries to transmit anyway.
If you get disconnected, that's the modem's doing, not Kermit's.  It probably
gave up on the connection.

: I also see this message when I am using the Kermit-mouse to cut and paste

That means the modem is flow-controlling Kermit.

I just bought Kermit 1.1.7, upgraded it to 1.1.8 (and will be getting
1.1.9 RSN), are the following Kermit bugs or is Something Wierd (tm)
with Win95?

1) Kermit can't seem to dial the modem at 0x03E8-0x03EF and IRQ5,
(Basic configuration 5, use automatic), I get a "can't init modem"
error.  Turning carrier detect off, connecting, and using ATDT dialing
works fine...

2) Printing doesn't work very well, I understand that the attribute
character print thang is fixed in 1.1.9, does that also fix the
inoperative form-feed?  When I hit Alt-end I get a ~ back from the
remote host...

3) Is there an easy way to install K95 to a directory tree longer than
8 characters?  I'd like to put it into \util\comm\K95...

Also, when's the 2.0 expected, with the real Win95 GUI?

Thanks!

What kind of modem is it, and what kind of modem does K95 think it is?
"Can't init modem" means that Kermit issued a command to the modem and
the modem either did not respond, or responded with an error indication.
So this usually means a modem-type mismatch.

No easy way, no.  This and many many many other issues will be addressed
in the GUI.

It's taking longer than expected.  At least another 2 or 3 months.

Kermit 95 1.1.9, announced on December 18, turns out to have a defect
affecting Windows 95 only (not Windows NT), resulting from our attempts to
improve the way we work around the Windows 95 bug with "odd-sized" console
windows.  It happens when you try to set up a session with a "long"
terminal screen (42/43 or 49/50 rows, rather than 24/25) and the TERMINAL
VIDEO-CHANGE setting is DISABLED (the new default); the result is a
terminal session whose lower portion is invisible.  The workaround is to
add:

  SET TERMINAL VIDEO-CHANGE ENABLED

to your K95CUSTOM.INI file, or by restricting your sessions to 24x80 (or
25x80 when there is no status line).  The problem is explained more fully
in the short text file:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/k95/newbugs.doc

A small patch will issued shortly.  My apologies for the inconvenience.

As I am typing along, in a vi session usually, connected via serial comm on
a 28.8 modem, K95 1.1.8 occasionally (like just now, actually), drops back
to the command screen, from the terminal screen.
typing "c" returns me to the terminal screen.
I don't recall this ever happenning with 1.1.7.
It doesn't appear to be aassociated with any particular key.

Could it be that the modem's carrier signal is briefly flashing off and on?
To test, tell K95 to "set carrier-watch off" and see if it still happens.
If not, then you might want to adjust the carrier sensitivity settings in
your modem.

If it does still happen, then some other possibilities include:

 . You are doing this yourself inadvertantly by hitting a certain key
   or key combo or sequence -- Ctrl-]c, Alt-x, or anything else that has
   \Kexit assigned to it;

 . An extremely improbable escape sequence is being received
   (APC clear apc ST).

Hi all,  I recently down loaded MS-DOS Kermit 3.14 and I have been
trying to figure out if it can be used to access my internet account
using PPP.

I have the manual "Using MS-DOS Kermit Sec. ED."  but it does not go
into this.

I also have glanced through the readme files and one of them said
something about support for Novell PPP driver and also Telebit PPP.

Does anybody have any infomation on these drivers like:
Are they availble for downloading?  Are they suitable for my purpose?


What I would like to be able to do is use Kermit and it's telnet
command to dial into my ISP which uses PPP and then telnet into my
Unix shell account.

The small program byte size and minimal system requirements of Kermit
appeal to me.  I would love to be able to use it on some older PCs
that choke on WinDoze.

Thanks for any help,

Sorry, no, we do not furnish such a library.  We recommend that those who
wish to embed communications functions -- connection establishment, logging
in and other dialogs, file management, data transfer -- do so by invoking
an existing Kermit program -- MS-DOS Kermit for DOS or Windows 3.x,
Kermit 95 for Windows 95 or NT, C-Kermit for UNIX or VMS, etc -- from within
their application by a combination of command-line arguments and command
files (Kermit script programs).  The situation might change in the future,
but for now that is the answer.

Does anybody know where I can find  script samples for MS-DOS kermit 3.14. 
The book "Using MS-DOS Kermit" is not easy to find in Italy.
Thanks and cheers.

It seems this question has been asked recently, but I would also like to
know if there exists a set of source code (or function libraries) in C
that would allow me to send and receive files using the Kermit protocol
within my windows application.

If somebody could send me any suggestions, I would appreciate it.

The Kermit software for Windows 95 is Kermit 95:

Every feature of its file-transfer protocol execuction is configurable, and
it has all sorts of debugging and troubleshooting features built in,  so I
would be very surprised if we could not get to work with PDP-8 Kermit.

	Novell's PPP module is SLIP_PPP, see ftp.novell.com or official
mirror sites. Telebit's PPP driver is sold by Telebit.
	You can also look at MERIT's PPP driver, free, in the Cyrnwr
Packet Driver archives (watsun.cc.columbia.edu/ftp.columbia.edu, or
netlab1.usu.edu/netlab2.usu.edu, and many other sites).

Not for nothing did I do it!

Ahh, "half duplex".  I just don't understand why the modem goes "half
duplex" on me, on its very own ... without me even doing anything.

(What's even stranger is how I found that the modem also "fixes"
itself, too!!  More on that later ...)

: : Any help for this modem newbie is appreciated.

I sort of checked this out ... the horse and the driver ... but
couldn't find any setting for "Duplex" in my communications program's
menu.  (MacKermit 0-991(190) Pre-ALPHA).  Although I personally doubt
that engineers at Columbia would be at fault on this, everything is
well worth checking out.

: If it is set to F0, then that is why you are in half duplex. Now, how
: setting S13=16 changes you from the default F1 which goes with the &F1
: setting, I don't understand. 

OK.  Here's what I tried to do.  I didn't fiddle with my term programs
settings.  I don't really understand what they all do, in truth.  

In my Terminal window of Kermit, I entered AT&F1 to load the read-only
factory configuration for hardware flow control, then ATS13=16 so that
the Sportster auto-dials, and wrote that to NVRAM 0 template by
entering AT&W0.

Which is all fine ... I then captured my settings using ATI4, as shown
below.

at&F1
OK

None of this makes any sense to me at all!!

I can't understand how a modem that is simply dialing a number stored
in NVRAM at "power on" doesn't behave as is expected when that same
number is dialed manually (ATDSn).

And I don't think my Term program is at fault here ... the settings
and internals of MacKermit don't change when I power a modem up or
down, although I suppose that the Kermit'ites are much better
qualified to comment on that than I.

Does anyone know whether the Sportster 14.4 firmware does something
strange when it does its own routines?  I'm absolutely stumped, here.

Oh yeah ... my ATI7 reads ...

Could you give a more complete reference for the "recent Gnu bug fix"?  I
have the older sources, but they do not run very well on Solaris 2.x SPARC.
I have been using ancient SunOS 4.1.x binaries.

It puzzles me also... since the default is always F1 meaning full duplex.

In half duplex, the modem echoes back the character sent. In full duplex,
the far end is expected to echo it back. When the modem is in half duplex
mode and connected to a full duplex host, you get things like this...

hheelllloo

When the modem is in full duplex mode and connected to a host in half
duplex mode then no characters appear on the screen.

I am doubly puzzled by this but in your expanded post, you showed that you
*did* correct a setting by sending "ATF1" as opposed to "AT&F1". Since the
F1 sets the full duplex mode, I thought that is what was correcting it.
You posted a screen capture that showed this...

As you can see, the command you sent was ATF1 and that sets full duplex.
Check your manual.

There is another clue later in this post...

Try looking for "Echo On" and "Echo Off"  then. I have never come across a
terminal program that did not have the ability to choose between these
settings. Check the documentation for the program. I am unfamiliar with
Macs and Kermit (being a DOS person and a Unix user, I prefer zmodem where
available and VT-10x emulations).

And the only thing you have not done is power down the modem which turns
off the MR on your modem and tells your terminal program that no modem is
attached. When you cycle the power back on, the terminal program is
supposed to react to that.

I would say that the modem's power up defaults are different from the
desired defaults and that switch 10 was set to On (this may be different
in the Sportster, check the manual for Power On and ATZ reset defaults)
but I could not find where F0 was the default in any profile.

There should be no difference between your pwoer up defaults and your

between you issuing the command and the modem issuing it to itself on
power up.

Look for some indication on the menu bars, if there are any. Note them
when you start up the term program. If you are simply doing this from the

selecting the number from a dialing directory then you are absolutely
correct that it isn't a default setting in your term program.

It shouldn't. I have never used the dialout at power on option before but

mean much.

That might be helpful but I think a comparison with someone else's like
modem would be better.

       Well. Let's get started.  A little while back, I was browsing
through
 these newsgroups, just like you are now, and came acress an article
similar
 to this that said you could make thousands of dollars in weeks, with only
 an initial investment of $5!  So, I thought, "Yeah, right, must be a
scam",
 but I was curious, like most of us, so I kept reading.

        Anyway, it said that you send $1 to each of the 5 names and
addresses
 stated in the article.  You then place your own name and address in the
 article at the bottom of the list at #5, and post the article in at least
 200 newsgroups (there are thousands).  No catch, that was it! So after
 thinking it over, talking to a few people first, I figured  what have I
got
 to lose except for 5 stamps and $5, right?  This is from someone who has
 tryed it and it worked like a charm.  I started getting money in the mail!
   I was shocked!  I still figured it would end soon, and didn't give it
 another thought.  But then the money kept comin IN. tripling in size and
 multiplying by 10 - 20 times the amount that I got the first week!  In my
 first week I made about 15 to 35 dollars.

 But by the end of the second week, I had made a total of over $1,150!!! 
In
 he third week, I had over $15,000 dollars, and it's still growing!

 This is my fourth week  and I've made about $39,000 TOTAL, and believe it
 or not the money is still coming in.... Let me tell you how this works and
 most importantly, WHY it works....also, make sure you print a copy of this
 article NOW, so you get the information from it, and begin making money.

 The process if very simple, and it consists of 3 easy steps:

 STEP 1:  Get 5 sepearte pieces of paper and write the following on each
 sheet of paper... "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST. And include your
 name and mailing address." Get five $1 bills, and place ONE inside each
 piece of paper that you have just written on, and fold each piece of paper
 so the bill will
 not be seen in the envelope (otherwise, nosey people who like to steal
 envelopes with money in it will get yours).  Put one paper inside the
 envelope and seal it.  Do the same for all 5.  You should now have 5
 envelopes sealed, EACH having a piece of paper AND the $1 bill inside.

 NOTE:  Make sure those words that were stated above are written on each
 piece of paper.  What you are doing is creating a service by this. This is
 PERFECTLY LEGAL.  Now, mail the 5 envelopes with the paper and $1 in each
 to the following 5 addresses:

   1. Bryan
       1350 Greens Pkwy #911
       Houston, TX  77067

    2. Mark Jr.
       30 McMellon Rd.
       Iola, TX  77861

    3. Greg
        2913 Richland Ave.
        Louisville, KY 40220

     5. Bastin
            General Delivery
            Prince George, BC V2L 4R8
            Canada
 
 STEP 2:  Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
 other 4 names up (5 becoming 4, 4 becomin 3, etc.) and put YOUR NAME as
 number 5 on the list.  You can slightly alter this article if you need to,
 editing what you need to edit.

 STEP 3: Post your amended article (with your name at #5) to at least 200
 news groups (there are around 18,000 of them!).  All you need is say at
 least 200.

 Using I.E. EXPLORER, Holding down the left mouse button, highlight this
 article.  Then press the "CTRL" key and the "C" key at the same time, to
 copy this article.  Then print this article for your records to have the
 names of those you will be sending $1 bills to.  Next, go to the news
 groups and press "POST AN ARTICLE".  A window will open.  Type in your
 headline in the subject area and then click in the large window below.  If
 you want to edit the article, do so and then highlight and copy it again.
 Now everytime you post the article in a new newgroup all you have to
repeat
 is "CTRL and "V" and press POST.


 That's it!  Each time you do this, all you have to do is type in a
 different newsgroup, so that way, it posts to 200 DIFFERENT newsgroups.
You
 see?  Now you just have 199 to go!  (Don't worry, each one takes
 about 30 seconds, once you get used to it).  REMEMBER, 200 IS THE MINIMUM.
 The more your post, the more money you will make.

 AND THAT'S IT!!!

 You are now in the mail-order business and will start receiving your

 $1 envelopes from various people all over the world, within days!

 HINT: THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST TO,

 THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE. You may want to rent a

 PO Box eventually, because of all the mail.  If you wish to

 stay anonymous, you can come up with a name, such as "manager" or

 "investor".  Just make sure all the addresses that you have typed in

 for the 4 people plus yourself are correct, please.



 LET ME TELL YOU WHY THIS SYSTEM WORKS!



 Out of every 200 postings, let's say I ONLY recieve 5 replies, which is
 actually VERY LOW. So I made $5 dollars with my name at #5. Now, each
 person who just sent me $1 dollar makes, say 200 postings, now with  name
 at number 4, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF 1000 POSTINGS, not including yours too.
 50 people send you $1 dollar now - that's $50 dollars you have made! Next,
 your new 50 agents each post 200 newsgroups with your name at  number 3,
or
 10,000 POSTINGS (50 X 200 = 10,000). The average returns at $1 dollar
each,
 or $500 dollars. They in turn make 200 postings, which is 5,000 returns at
 $1 dollar each, which is $5,000 dollars! And finally, 5,000 people make
200
 postings with YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 1.

 YOU NOW GET A RETURN OF $50,000 DOLLARS BEFORE YOUR NAME DROPS OFF THE
 LIST.
 AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE ONLY MAKES 200 POSTINGS, AND IF ONLY 5 PEOPLE
 RESPOND!!!

 When your name is no longer on the list, you simply take the latest
posting
 that is appearing in the newsgroups, and SEND OUT ANOTHER $5 DOLLARS TO
THE
 NAMES ON THE LIST, PUTTING YOUR NAME AT #5 AGAIN.

 And start posting again. The thing to remember is, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ALL
 OVER THE WORLD ARE JOINING THE INTERNET AND READING THESE
 ARTICLES EVERY DAY - just like you are now!!!
 So can you afford $5 dollars to see if it really works? I think so..

 People have said, "What if the plan is played out and no one sends you the
 money?" So what! What are the chances of that happening when there are
TONS
 OF NEW HONEST USERS AND NEW HONEST PEOPLE whos are joining the internet
and
 newsgroups every day and are willing to give it a try?

 Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users every day, with THOUSANDS of
 those actually joining the internet.

 Remember, PLAY FAIRLY, AND HONESTLY, and this WILL WORK. I promise you!!

 You just have to be honest. Make sure you print this article out RIGHT
NOW.

 Also, try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and always keep
 an eye on the newsgroups to make sure everyone is playing fairly.

 REMEMBER: HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY! you don't need to cheat the idea to
 make money.

 GOOD LUCK TO ALL, PLEASE PLAY FAIRLY, AND YOU WILL REAP THE HUGE REWARDS

 FROM THIS - TONS OF EXTRA CASH!!!

 One last note: if you try to decieve people by posting the messages with
 your name on the list and not sending the money to the people already on
 the list, you will not get much in return.

 Someone I talked to knew someone who did that and she only made $150
 dollars, and that's after eight weeks! Then she sent the 5 $1 dollar
bills,
 people added her to their lists, and in 4-5 weeks she had over
 $10,000 dollars!!! THIS IS THE FAIREST AND MOST HONEST WAY I HAVE EVER
SEEN
 TO
 SHARE THE WEALTH OF THE WORLD WITHOUT COSTING US ANYTHING BUT OUR TIME, $5
 DOLLARS AND FIVE POSTAGE STAMPS!

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Well. Let's get started. &nbsp;A =
little while back, I was browsing through<br> these newsgroups, just =
like you are now, and came acress an article similar<br> to this that =
said you could make thousands of dollars in weeks, with only<br> an =
initial investment of $5! &nbsp;So, I thought, &quot;Yeah, right, must =
be a scam&quot;,<br> but I was curious, like most of us, so I kept =
reading.<br><br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Anyway, it =
said that you send $1 to each of the 5 names and addresses<br> stated in =
the article. &nbsp;You then place your own name and address in the<br> =
article at the bottom of the list at #5, and post the article in at =
least<br> 200 newsgroups (there are thousands). &nbsp;No catch, that was =
it! So after<br> thinking it over, talking to a few people first, I =
figured &nbsp;what have I got<br> to lose except for 5 stamps and $5, =
right? &nbsp;This is from someone who has<br> tryed it and it worked =
like a charm. &nbsp;I started getting money in the mail!<br> =
&nbsp;&nbsp;I was shocked! &nbsp;I still figured it would end soon, and =

money is still coming in.... Let me tell you how this works and<br> most =

Hello,
 I noticed that I had poor throughput during most of my sessions.
I tested this using mskermit and ckermit by using up/downloads during
serial dialin sessions. This is what I discovered:

 28.8 connection 115200 modem speed, windows 5, packet size 5000,
 42.bis compression,rts/cts. 

 1. A session fell into one of two categories either a throughput of
 3500 - 3900 cps or 6000 - 6500 cps for a text file (always the same file).
 The througput for a precompessed file was always ~3200 cps - this
 to assure that that varying line conditions did not account for the
 disparity. ~3200 was also the rate for a non-compressed session for
 any kind of file. During any one dial in session the cps did not change 
 from the slower realm to the faster or faster to slower.
 
 2. Varing packet-lengths had no effect other than to slow or speed
 up everythimg by the expected amount.

 3.These results were basicly the same at all times: the likelyhood   
 of having a good or bad session was the same,  1 out of every 5 
 sessions was 'a good one'. This was during times of heavy or light
 load on the remote. It was possible to have a good session at times
 when the load on the remote was the heaviest and to have a bad
 session when the the lightest.

 4. The results were about the same for mnp compression.

 What I wonder.

 1.It seems that compression is occuring, but what is this 
 partial compression! ;-( , 3800cps for a file a file that would
 have a transfer rate of only slightly less (3200 cps)
 when a compression free connection was made?
     
 2. Is it possible that some modems implement feeble
 compression?
                             
 The reason I am posting here is the responses/suggestions I have gotten are.

  Don't use kermit. ?
  Shouldn't use packet lengths of over 1024 on a hayes compatible modems. ?  

                                                  Thanks 
                                                  cmosley

MS-DOS Kermit 3.15 Beta 12 is now available for testing (there was no open
Beta 11).

A timer-related problem was fixed that could cause MS-DOS Kermit to block
(hang) on a TCP/IP connection for up to a minute or more if a sent packet
were lost while slowly sending tiny packets.  This problem was most
frequently observed in Telnet terminal sessions, while typing.

IF commands containing variables were being overevaluated; e.g.
"if = \%i 4 decrement \%i".  Such statements now work again.

The following command-related changes were made for compatibility with
C-Kermit 6.0:

 . The LOCAL command now works with macro names as well as \%x variable 
   names.  So, for example:

     LOCAL FOO BAR \%A

   declares three local variables, foo, bar, and \%a.  FOO and BAR are macro
   names, which can be used either as "local subroutines" or as long-named
   variables accessible via the \m(name) construction.

 . The LOCAL command can now be used not only in macro definitions, but also
   in command files.  This allows construction of portable command files
   with private data, without danger of conflict with variable names already
   in use globally, or by other procedures.

 . MSLEEP added as a synonym for MPAUSE (millisecond sleep).

To get it:

Anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia.edu, directory kermit/test/bin, binary mode,
file msk315.zip.  ZIP file contains the executable, MSK315.EXE, and a brief
description of the changes since version 3.14, MSK315.DOC.

Report problems via email to kermit@columbia.edu.

Thanks, as always, to Joe Doupnik of Utah State University for his
excellent work.

As you might know, you can also squeeze another 20-25% throughput when
transferring binary and/or precompressed files by using control-character
prefixing (available in C-Kermit 5A(189) or later, MS-DOS Kermit 3.13 or
later -- the current versions are 6.0.192 and 3.14, respectively).

OK, so 3200 cps for a precompressed file, always.  That indicates, roughly,
the actual capacity of the connection.  This is almost exactly what is
expected (2880 cps / 8-bits-per-character = 3600 cps less about 11% LAPM
(V.42) overhead = 3204 cps).   And the constancy of this figure rules out
modulation downshifting of the V.34 connection.  So far so good.

Now a text file is usually quite compressible.  The degree to which it
is compressed prior to transfer, then, all else being equal (and it seems
to be) determines the throughput.

If sometimes the file transfers at 3500-3900 cps, and others at 6000-6500,
this indicates that the the modems have successfuly negotiated a compression
protocol in the latter case, but not in the former.  This can be verified
by setting your modem to display its active protocols when it gives its
CONNECT message, or by escaping back to the modem after connection and giving
the appropriate command for displaying protocols.

That's because Kermit protocol includes its own form of compression that

Thanks for not listening to that one.  I think if you ran the same
experiments with ZMODEM (which is, no doubt, what these people would tell
you to use), you would get the same results for precompressed files, but you
would probably get only the expected 3200 cps for text files, rather than
the higher throughput that you got with Kermit.  That's assuming the clean
and totally transparent kind of connection that is required for ZMODEM to
work well, or at all.

:   Shouldn't use packet lengths of over 1024 on a hayes compatible modems. ?  
: 
That doesn't make any sense.  It's not the brand name or command set of the
modem that's important, but rather its buffering and flow-control capacity.
In general, the improvement from packet lengths over 1000 is marginal, but
sometimes (almost in defiance of the underlying math) it can be significant.
More often, a larger window size is more beneficial.  In all cases, of
course, you can also improve throughput by "unprefixing" those control
characters that are safe to send bare.

Kermit performance is discussed and analyzed in depth, with particular
reference to V.34 connections, in Chapter 12 of the new second edition of
"Using C-Kermit":

around the house.  I thought that the IR keyboards would make
them great for reading mail and news from the couch/bed/

The current version of Kermit is 3.14.  If you look on your 3.14
diskette, you will see there are three different EXE files:

  KERMIT.EXE     Full-featured version
  KERMITE.EXE    No networks, no graphics terminal emulation
  KERLITE.EXE    No networks, no terminal emulator at all

Try the second one; it should fit.

 Yes, this must be it, the kermit repeat compression of a text file is in
 line with the difference between 3800 cps & 3200 cps. What threw me off was
 that my modem does report V42bis at connect. I assumed kermit's repeat
 compression was taking place but only accounted for some of the difference
 of 600 cps. I suppose since there is no way of turning off kermits repeat
 compression I could use a text file that has no repeats but could still
 be compressed by 42.bis.

    But No, 42.bis is either on or off. Some modem/s is/are not telling
 me the truth.

A small group of new modem scripts has been assembled for use with MS-DOS
Kermit 3.15 Beta 12 or later.  These new scripts take advantage of many of
the new features in the scripting language: block structure, MINPUT (INPUT
with multiple simultaneous targets), local variables, and so on.  Some have
been tested, some have not.  If you would like to try them out and report
back to kermit@columbia.edu, here are the ones currently available:

 Name        Remarks
  compaq.ksc  Compaq internal modems -- untested
  hayes.ksc   Hayes 1200 and 2400 -- tested on 1200 only
  megahz.ksc  Megahertz X-Jack V.34 (XJ3144 or CC6144) -- untested
  sport.ksc   US Robotics Sportster or Courier
  supra.ksc   Supra or SupraSonic modems -- untested
  t3000.ksc   Telebit T3000 (or T1600 or Qblazer) -- tested on T3000

The new modem scripts are in:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/test/modems/

And MS-DOS Kermit 3.15 Beta 12 is in:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/test/bin/msk315.zip

The filenames are (of course) in DOS 8.3 format.  The new KSC filetype
stands for "Kermit SCript".  We can't use .SCR any more because in the world
of Windows, that stands for "SCReen saver".

A nice feature of the new scripts is that various parameters can be set
by defining environment or Kermit variables.  These are:

  DIALPORT    - COM port to use for dialing (COM1, etc, default current port)
  DIALSPEED   - Speed for dialing (default depends on script)
  DIALMETHOD  - TONE or PULSE (modem's default method is used by default)
  DIALRETRIES - Maximum times to redial the call (default 5)
  DIALTIMEOUT - How long to wait for result from modem (default 90 seconds)

If any of these variables is not defined, an appropriate default is used.

To test these scripts, put them in the same directory with MSK315.EXE and
make sure that is your current directory.  Then tell MSK315 to:

  define dial set port 1, take xxxx.ksc

Replace "port 1" with "port 2" or whatever port number your modem is
connected to if it is not port 1, and replace "xxxx.ksc" with the name of
the dialing script.  Then tell Kermit to DIAL in the normal way, e.g.:

  dial 7654321

Read the comments in each script for additional details.

Something as simple as ABABABAB... would do it (well, that one would be

But you _can_ turn off Kermit's repeat compression if you want to:

This is generally useful only for experiments like this one; usually there is

Anybody who follows comp.dcom.modems would not be shocked to find a modem
with a bug like this in it -- in fact, this is a fairly innoccuous one
compared to many other common ones.

A special directory has been set up on the Kermit ftp site for
printer utilities usable with Kermit software.  Included are the
textps program for translating from plain text in various character
sets to PostScript; the various transparent-print and autoprint
shell scripts and VMS DCL command procedures, etc.  Also included
are two new programs for transparent printing to HP LaserJet 4L
and 5L printers, with automatic conversion from Latin-1 to the
printer's native character set (HP Roman8 and CP437, respectively).

The new directory is:

  ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/printers/

The READ.ME file in that directory contains a summary of the files.
No binaries are included -- only script programs or C-language source.

	I'd say 5KB Kermit packets is too large for efficiency. That
likely exceeds the buffering capacity of any stage along the path
(in programs at either end, in the modems, etc). Wiser is 1KB Kermit
packets so when one arrives completely analysis can begin while others
make their way through the comms pipeline. Most of the pipelines I've
seen (mainly Internet ones) are less than 8KB capacity round trip so 
1KB Kermit packets and 8 window slots is a nice fit.

Throughput increases a little less than 1/3 when I use 5000 rather
than a 1000 (dialin to shell). I don't know, I will check maybe
the optimum length is somewhere in between.

Slackware 2.3 Linux contains it.  The "bug fixes" is merely quoting what is
in the supporting documentation, I don't know what they have done, but the
implication is that it is minimal.

Keep getting the above error message when attempting to download file
using external zmodem protocol program, rz, thru a telnet / tcp/ip
connection. I'm using the ckurzsz.ini macros from ckermit for linux
V5a.190-2. Error doesn't occur for text files, but does for binary/zip
files. Error also doesn't occur when doing same xfr thru dialup
connection vs. telnet.

Any one have any ideas? Is telnet not able to accommodate such a file
xfr?

Thanks in advance for any advice. Happy Holidays!

In general, Zmodem, unlike Kermit, demands a fully transparent 8-bit
connection.  Telnet does not provide such a connection.  If your version of
sz/rz has command-line switches for prefixing ("escaping") dangerous
characters (such as 0xFF and 0x0D), use them.

I tried several times over the weekend to transfer a rather large file
home, first by dumping it to a local disk using netscape (3.0 gold),
then by transferring it to my ISP and using Kermit to telnet into the
ISP over the PPP link, but on both cases I got modem disconnects after
a few minutes.

Dropping the PPP link and using Kermit to dial in directly worked
flawlessly, any idea where the problem might be?

Thanks!

No idea.  But I would suggest you use the Dial-up Networking monitor
to see what kind of errors the PPP driver is reporting before the disconnect.
Perhaps you have some kind of flow control problem.  Try reducing the 
connect speed.

Unlike most other Kermit programs, Kermit 95 "unprefixes" most control
characters by default.  Maybe your PPP link (most likely at the terminal
server interface) is sensitive to one or more of them?  If that's the case,
try "set prefixing all".

If that doesn't fix it, then maybe the Telnet server on the far end is
chopping off the 8th bit.  In that case try "set parity space".

I've not heard of the dial-up networking monitor.  A search of the 
Microsoft web site located some things that appear to be NT specific.  
Or are you referring to netstat?

;Dear Kermit 95 users,

;Here is the problem setting (... do you have a modem or
;terminal-adapter which conforms exactly to one of the
;predefined modem-types of K95? Than you don't need to read further) :

;If I tell K95 what to do for a preparation of a X75-
;ISDN-connection:

; FILE K95X75.INI which can replace K95CUSTOM.INI. Applies to a
; Zyxel Omni TA128 with Zyxel SP111AT serial/parallel adapter
; card with clockspeed setting = (x4) such that line speeds
; are multiplied by 4.
;
set port 3
set speed 57600
set modem type user-defined
set modem name OmniTA128_X75
set Modem carrier-watch    auto
set Modem capabilities     AT SB EC DC HWFC SWFC
set Modem maximum-speed    57600
set Modem error-correction on
set Modem compression      on
set Modem speed-matching   off
set Modem flow-control    auto
set Modem kermit-spoof     off
set Modem escape-character 43
SET MODEM COMMAND INIT-STRING AT&FE1V1Q0X7&O2B00\13
SET MODEM DIAL-COMMAND ATD%s\13
SET MODEM COMMAND AUTOANSWER ON ATS0=1\13
SET MODEM COMMAND AUTOANSWER OFF ATS0=0\13
SET MODEM COMMAND ERROR-CORRECTION ON AT\13
SET MODEM COMMAND ERROR-CORRECTION OFF AT\13
SET MODEM COMMAND COMPRESSION ON AT&K44\13
SET MODEM COMMAND COMPRESSION OFF AT&K00\13
SET MODEM COMMAND DIAL-MODE-STRING
SET MODEM COMMAND DIAL-MODE-PROMPT
SET MODEM COMMAND HANGUP-COMMAND ATH0\13
SET MODEM COMMAND HARDWARE-FLOW AT&H3\13
SET MODEM COMMAND SOFTWARE-FLOW AT&H4\13
SET MODEM COMMAND NO-FLOW-CONTROL AT&H0\13
SET MODEM COMMAND TONE ATM\13
SET MODEM COMMAND PULSE ATI\13
set modem compression on
set terminal type ansi-bbs
; end of file K95X75.ini

;... if I now tell K95:

  set modem type user-defined

; ... would you mind if K95 applies afterwards
; invisibly to the user the following series of commands?:

; (begin of miracle commands)

set Modem carrier-watch
set Modem capabilities
set Modem maximum-speed 0
set Modem error-correction off
set Modem compression off
set Modem speed-matching
set Modem flow-control
set Modem kermit-spoof
set Modem escape-character 0
SET MODEM COMMAND INIT-STRING
SET MODEM DIAL-COMMAND
SET MODEM COMMAND AUTOANSWER ON
SET MODEM COMMAND AUTOANSWER OFF
SET MODEM COMMAND ERROR-CORRECTION ON
SET MODEM COMMAND ERROR-CORRECTION OFF
SET MODEM COMMAND COMPRESSION ON
SET MODEM COMMAND COMPRESSION OFF
SET MODEM COMMAND DIAL-MODE-STRING
SET MODEM COMMAND DIAL-MODE-PROMPT
SET MODEM COMMAND HANGUP-COMMAND
SET MODEM COMMAND HARDWARE-FLOW
SET MODEM COMMAND SOFTWARE-FLOW
SET MODEM COMMAND NO-FLOW-CONTROL
SET MODEM COMMAND TONE
SET MODEM COMMAND PULSE
;(end of miracle commands)

;... I would guess you would most certainly because you don't know
;what's going on. You would most likely ask: where do these commands
;come from? Where are these argumentless variants of commands defined?
;...
;You would further ask when does the above situation occur?
;I encountered it in the Hostmode of K95 (You advanced K95 users look
; into scripts/hostmdm.ksc: ... set modem type \v(modem) ...).

; If you want to use this message as a script simply delete
; the previous "miracle" commands. You can use it for initialisation
; of X75 client mode of the Omni TA128.
; Explanation for non-german readers:
; X75 is used by the majority of ISDN-BBSes in Germany. 

;An application of the riddle for advanced users (difficult):

;try to use K95 in hostmode with x75.ini or a similar
;user-defined terminal-adapter or modem.


;You advanced K95 users:

;perhaps this a an adequate Warm-Up in this cold New Year
;which I wish you to be a happy one.

;Joachim
