Hi,
I've been using the latest version of ms-kermit on my PC to connect
to a remote (unix) system. I run Kermit via a .pif file from
Windows 3.1 (on a 486 PC). I have an USR Sportster 14400 int. modem.
In general I have no trouble connecting and once the
connection is running it is extremely reliable, however about
one time out of ten I run kermit, dial up the remote system, a
connection is established but the welcome message from the
remote system just _stops_ part way through.
When this happens I can't type anything in the terminal window
and I can still hear modem data if I pick the phone up. I can
give the hangup command from the kermit prompt and that works
ok, but I still cant get the modem to respond if I go back to
the terminal screen. If I quit kermit and start it again the
problem usually remains (and kermit often tells me it can't
verify the port). The only solution seems to be to quit and
restart Windows.
Since the problem is a bit sporadic I haven't been able to work
out whats going on but its really starting to annoy me!
I'd be very grateful if anyone can offer any opinions/advice
on what the problem might be!
Thanks,
Ian.
