I used Kermit 3.13 for my PC, my modem has a speed of 14.4 K, but I found that the downloading rate from the mainframe to my PC was still very slow! I tried Telix with SZ (Z-Modem Protocol), and it was very fast compared to Kermit. Is there a way to accelerate Kermit transfer ?

You could use sz within kermit
or
Set following on both end of kermit
set receive packet 2000
set windows 3
set con u all
set con p 0 1
See DOC for correct syntax.
You need MS-Kermit 3.13 and C-Kermit 5A (189) or up
But don't push kermit too hard. In some cases, it will leave errors undetect
(At least on our unix box)

I am using kermit on my linux box. It changed the file name form lower case to upper case when I download files from remote host. Any ideas? How can I prevent this? Thanks!

Using C-Kermit, Frank DaCruz, 1993, Digital Press, page 114:
SET FILE NAMES LITERAL
Is probably also mentioned in the .hlp files with the Kermit distribution
(ftp kermit.columbia.edu).
Check also out the command:
SET ATTRIBUTES ON
