You left out the most important info -- what kind of computer, what OS
(evidently Linux on a PC?), what version of C-Kermit?
Could it be that your host's FTP client has some kind of pager built in,
similar to Unix "more"?
I could list about 100 possible reasons for the behavior you are seeing, but
that would be silly. Why don't you just:
(a) Make sure you have an up-to-date version of C-Kermit, namely 5A(190).
(b) Set it up correctly for your type of connection. For example, if you
are using a high-speed error-correcting modem, then set Kermit and
the modem for RTS/CTS flow control.
(c) Consult the manual, "Using C-Kermit", which contains countless pages
of info about serial communication and troubleshooting hints.
(d) If the problem persists, send email to kermit@columbia.edu listing the
details of the software version, connection type and parameters, etc.
