When you say "DOS 16 bit subsystem" that leads me to suspect that you are
using MS-DOS Kermit on the Windows end. See:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/msk95.html
..or that you are using Kermit 95 (as you should be) but are under the
mistaken impression that it is a DOS program. Here is the Kermit 95 page:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/k95.html
In any case, I would suspect the problem is the permissions on the
different directories on that PC, but you didn't mention which Windows OS
you have.
