: My question is how does Kermit interact with TAPI (or Telephony API)?
:
As much as it can if you want it to. If you choose a TAPI port, Kermit
uses the TAPI driver, obtains your location info from TAPI for purposes of
interpreting phone numbers, lets TAPI control and dial the modem, etc.
Kermit 95 also lets you choose a "bare" COM port, in which case Kermit 95
does the dialing and serial i/o itself.

:
By using the TAPI Line Device, the port it is associated with is not
locked by the application until a call is attempted. As long as your
application uses TAPI, and you use a TAPI device instead of directly
specifying a COM port, you can share the device.
: Is there a way to dial into my machine and have the new connection
: forwarded to a Kermit script?
:
A Kermit script can be written to configure any TAPI or Modem device for
autoanswer mode. Kermit's INPUT, MINPUT, and SERVER commands can be used
to process data after the call comes in.
