The OS/2 IAK provides an implementation of IBM TCP/IP 2.0 for DOS within
OS/2 DOS Sessions. However, MS-DOS Kermit does not work in that environment.
You can however use MS-DOS Kermit in conjunction with Ray Gwinn's SIO drivers.
I have installed SIO.SYS, VSIO.SYS, VX00.SYS (fossil), and VMODEM (com3).
Then I tell MS-DOS Kermit to SET PORT FOSSIL 3, and dial away to my
host.
VMODEM uses binary telnet connections so sometimes you must use ^J instead
^M. But otherwise it works fine.
