We discuss these situations in the Kermit release notes. To give
only the bottom line here: one may not run two or more TCP/IP stacks over
the same board at the same time. Let's assume that you have avoided this
pit-fall and Kermit successfully connects to your Unix machine.
CU is a pretty horrid piece of software and it is unrelated to
Kermit. May I recommend using CKermit on the Unix machine and then matters
will progress better. The reason is you need data transparency on the Unix
machine.
