Exactly which version of C-Kermit? 5A(190) is current, 5A(192) is in
development.
A packet log might show why the server is trying to send a NAK. The
default is for it not to do that in between "transactions". Maybe all
you need to do is tell it "set server timeout 0".
One of the many items on our list is to make C-Kermit capable of running on
its own socket, just like (say) an FTP server, but we have not done this
yet for UNIX. However, we do have a socket assigned by IANA for this purpose:
1649, as yet unused.
