For what it's worth, I tried four Kermits.
Kermit 95 1.1.17, 18 June 1998 seemed to work fine.
Kermit 95 1.1.19 Beta.16, Feb 8 2000 with default settings gave:
DNS Lookup... Trying 35.9.5.118... Reverse DNS Lookup... (OK)
- (long wait here)
?Telnet Protocol Timeout - connection closed
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL TERMINAL-TYPE
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL NAWS
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL AUTHENTICATION
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL NEW-ENVIRONMENT
Can't connect to pilot.msu.edu:105
I then "set telnet wait-for-negotions off" (same effect as
/nowait switch I believe) and it seemed to work except for
two things:
I had to "set local-echo on" after making connection, and
Something extraneous appeared to be sent as I always got
"514:Unsupported command" in response to my first input
(subsequent inputs worked as expected).
I don't know if I would have seen "it acts weird a few minutes later".
I didn't try it that long.
C-Kermit 7.0.196, 1 Jan 2000, for FreeBSD 3.0 gave:
DNS Lookup... Trying 35.9.5.118... Reverse DNS Lookup... (OK)
Negotiations...................................................................
.......................................................
?Telnet Protocol Timeout - connection closed
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL TERMINAL-TYPE
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL NAWS
?Telnet waiting for response to WILL NEW-ENVIRONMENT
Can't open connection to pilot018.cl.msu.edu:105
With "set telnet wait-for-negotiations off" it was the same
as Kermit 95 1.1.19 Beta.16, Feb 8 2000.
C-Kermit 7.0.196, 1 Jan 2000, for HP-UX 10.20 gave exactly the same
results down to the number of dots following "Negotiations" as did
C-Kermit 7.0.196, 1 Jan 2000, for FreeBSD 3.0.
