I have encountered the following situation with C-Kermit V6.0.192:
C-Kermit's default block-check-type is 3-character-CRC. As expected, if a
communicating Kermit cannot handle the CRC block-check-type, C-Kermit
reverts to the block-check-type the two Kermits *can* agree on. For
example, if the other Kermit handles only the original
1-character-checksum, C-Kermit happily accommodates it. Problem: after
the file transfer, C-Kermit does not restore the block-type-check to the
default 3-character-CRC. Or at least, when does a "show protocol", the
block-check-type shows up as the one last used. Is this intended
behavior? I should think not.
I'd be interested in a patch/fix.
