Which version of Kermit? The current version is C-Kermit 8.0:

Does C-Kermit follow the HP-UX standard? If so, then it's qpage
that needs fixing. (To test, see where HP-UX cu puts its lockfiles.)
Users are not given the ability to change the lockfile location
or contents or format; that would be rather self-defeating.
More about lockfiles here:

It is the responsibility of every application to ensure that its
lockfile definitions agree with those of the operating system and
version where it is to be used.
