You are talking about two different connections here, and Kermit lives by
the rules of the OS for each of them.
Frank already talked about TCP persistence.
Modems have no such persistence. I'm not sure what you mean by "lock
us out of the modems". Are you telnetting in, and then occupying
outbound modems? If so, you are stuck with the TCP issues.
If the modem that you dialed into doesn't break down, because you have
a telnet connection still alive beyond it, then you are talking about a
misconfigured modem at the host end. You also are probably not talking
about a kermit-telnet connection, but an OS-telnet connection.
