Thanks for all your inputs. They will be implemented. As part of my
diagnostics, I swapped out the modem with another of the same mfg and was
able to duplicate the failure. I then swapped this "no name" modem for a
well known brand name. I was unable to make it fail. File transfers ran
smoothly last night.
My conclusion is that the original modem didn't detect the disconnect and/or
report it to Kermit.
Thanks again
