I am having the same problem as Bruce Tarr and have read the KERMIT.BWR.
I put in the SET COM2 \x2f8 3 in the MSCUSTOM.INI file and still get the
problem. I've played with the speed and flow control settings but since
it is an intermittant problem, its hard to tell if this changes anything.
Any other suggestions?
