Subject: Stop automatic resetting of terminal emulation?

We use K/2 and K-95 heavily to telnet to different applications throughout
our hospital. We've run into a problem twice where the remote host will
reset the terminal emulation of the local K-95 just after the remote login
sequence is completed.
It's not a problem when the VT host changes the emulation from VT320 to
VT220 but we've run into a conundrum when an SCOANSI host changes the
emulation from SCOANSI (which works perfectly) to ANSI (which doesn't.)
Two possible solutions present themselves: first, get the host to stop
sending a request to change terminal emulation; second, set Kermit to
ignore any requests to change the terminal emulation. Knowing the kind of
support one receives from Kermit, I decided to start here.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I couldn't find this addressed in
the manual(s) or Dejanews so I'm stuck.
Thank you,

PS: I realize I can go back to the command line to manually reset the
terminal emulation to what it was originally and go on my merry way.
Unfortunately, the many of the people here wouldn't quite understand the
concept of command line, let alone terminal emulation. Heck, Alt-X is
probably stretching the computer skills of some...
