Where did you get the version that you have? Here is our standard blurb
about the real way to get C-Kermit for UNIX (*including* Linux):
anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia edu, directory kermit/archives,
binary mode, file cku190.tar.Z (or .gz for gunzip). Uncompress,
untar, read the instructions at the top of the makefile, and then
give the appropriate "make" command, for example:
make linux
make solaris2x
make hpux90
which should produce an executable called "wermit". Try it out
and if it's OK, install it as "kermit" in the desired location,
such as /usr/local/bin. Read the ckuins.doc file for additional
installation instructions.
Please be sure to also order the manual, since it shows you how
to use the software and how to get the most out of it, and sales of
the manual are the primary source of income that pays for our work.
