-----------------
Pete,
At the very end of your message, shown below, is the key to your
puzzle. The serial port hardware is at port 0x3e8 and IRQ 5. Please do
read the release notes which are packaged with MS-DOS Kermit and discover
how serial ports are identified. IRQ 5 is not a conventional value at all,
and COM2 does NOT, repeat not, mean a specific hardware port either.
The solution is to tell Kermit the parameters of your non-standard
serial port, via command SET COMx port irq where the "x" is a digit 1..4.
It's in the manual.
