Four new updates have been released for Kermit-CMS, one an optional
"work-around" and three unconditional. Although SimWare's software
protocol-conversion products known as SIM3270 have included "full" 7171
compatibililty for several years, it seems that a change in Kermit-370
around level 4.2.2 "broke" that compatibility for at least some of the
SIM3270 products. Update SC95130 (found in IKCKER BWR) can be applied
to solve this problem for sites running SimWare products. The other
updates apply to some rather obscure bugs: (1) the new features of
RESEND and using the transmitted time tag in CMS interfered with each
other, (2) turning DEBUG on interfered with RESEND when the user's
A-disk was SFS, and (3) any kind of file transfer would stop execution
of a TAKE file when TAKE ERROR-ACTION was HALT. To affected users,
these bugs are a problem, but most users aren't affected. Thus, the
updates have been placed in IKCKER NUP for public availability, but no
new official release has been made.
