Aha - a bug. The problem is that the second Kermit, when given the
file descriptor of a Telnet connection, does not know it is a Telnet
connection, and so does not engage in Telnet protocol with the Telnet
server on the other end. To compound the situation, the first Kermit
might have negotiated certain key parameters (like echoing) that the
second Kermit doesn't find out about.
The same scenario works fine for serial connections.
We'll have to address this one in the next release.
Thanks for the report!
