I don't think ProComm supports client/server GET, so the command would

Lots. Read the C-Kermit 7.0 Update notes section on Coping with Faulty
Kermit Implementations:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckermit2.html#x4.22
At least one of the tricks in that section should help, but if none of
them do, then install C-Kermit 8.0:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck80.html
and try the additional tricks listed here:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckermit3.html#x15
If you still have no joy, report back here.
