Subject: MS-DOS Kermit - remote query bug?
Date: 11 Jul 1995 20:24:55 -0700

I am using MS-DOS Kermit (v3.14 patch level 8) to dial into a Sun
(running Solaris 2.3) where I run C-Kermit 5A(190). Once connected I put
the remote kermit (i.e. on the Sun) into server mode then escape back
(Alt-X) to my local kermit prompt. I then proceed with the following
dialog...
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>remote assign \%a foo
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>remote query user \%a
Message: foo
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>echo \v(query)
foo
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>set display quiet
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>remote query user \%a
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>echo \v(query)
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>set display regular
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>echo \v(query)
[C:\KERMIT] MS-Kermit>
It seems that remote query doesn't work if set display quiet is in
effect. Has anybody else seen this? Is this a feature or a bug or have
I been working too long on this?
Any and all help on this matter greatly appreciated!
