Subject: Help with OS/2 C-Kermit and IBM NR/2 problem

I have a problem running C-Kermit for OS/2 and NR/2 at the same
time over an IAK PPP connection (to a Sun SPARC Solaris 2.4 PPP
server at the office).
Specifics: IBM 755CX, 40 MB RAM, 810 MB drive, OS/2 Warp as
delivered in the dual boot with DOS 7.0/Win 3.11 setup. I have
added Mwave 2.0 drivers, the PPP and other IAK fixes, and the updated
ThinkPad utilities/drivers/PCMCIA/IR stuff from the IBM web sites.
I use SIO 1.53 serial port drivers with the built in MWave modem on
COM2. A 14.4 error-corrected PPP link is negotiated with VJ header
compression (speed limited by the Sun modem).
The IAK PPP connection seems to work fine - I can run C-Kermit and telnet
to work, run IBM's Web Browser, use FTP, NewsReader/2, and such.
However, if NR/2 is running I have problems with C-Kermit 5A(191) with
date of 6-06-95 and file size of 719566. If I start C-Kermit, it looks OK.
At the prompt I type: telnet cobra
and I promptly get the following (writing over text in the 1st and 2nd line
of the C-Kermit window):
Sorry, can't create threadit.ini for OS/2...
[C:\CKERMIT] C-Kermit>_
I probably have something misconfigured (easy to do as OS/2 is so
configurable!) but I don't have a clue at this point. This same sequence
works if NR/2 is not running (cobra is the name of the Sun PPP host and
DNS knows its name and IP address and DNS is working). The obvious
solution is to not run c-kermit when NR/2 is up but I would like to be
able to.
Any tips, pointers, guesses, or solutions welcome.
Thanks,
Stuart Biggar
