Unfortunately, the AS/400 remains one of the only computer systems that
we don't have a Kermit program for (unless it is running AIX). Anyway,
you're not going to have much luck using a 5250 as a terminal to a VAX,
Kermit or no Kermit. They are two very different worlds. You might have
better luck going in the opposite direction: initiate a connection from
the VAX to the AS/400 if you can, which depends on the nature of the
X.25 hookups, interfaces, and drivers.
