  24. hello,
  25.  
  26. it seems the mac version of kermit is not that popular.
  27. however my task is to connect a mac laptop (1400cs/166) via serial
  28. connection to a linux box, to simulate the login procedure and the
  29. communication with the apache server, etc.
  30. i'd like to connect with kermit to the getty-process running on the
  31. linux box, because it seemed to me that kermit is a great thing with all
  32. that features.
  33. i was pretty disappointed when i realized that kermit for mac doesn't
  34. deal with the tcp-protocol.
  35. who can give me an idea what to do?
  36. for example 'how do i hang up without quitting the connection?', or 'how
  37. can i use tcp with kermit for mac at all?'
  38. i cannot believe that it is impossible!
  39. thanks for your time.
  40.  
  41. regards
  42. patric jaeger
