Thanks for the tips. I was confused about the ON/OFF meaning in SET
CARRIER. I though SET CARRIER ON meant SET the CARRIER ON (or act like
is set on, anyway). There is no SET CARRIER ... in either CKERMIT.INI
or CKERMOD.INI. SET CARRIER AUTO still gave me the same problem.
However, SET CARRIER OFF works just fine. I am writing this via OS/2
Kermit. I will get version 5A(190) ASAP.
