C-Kermit is supposed to run correctly in cron jobs without any special
handling other than redirecting stdout. It does here, and under the
same operating system as you are using (but possibly at a different
revision and/or patch level).
Please send email directly to kermit.columbia.edu stating the exact
C-Kermit version number, the last hundred lines or so of the debug.log
file (include "-d" on the command line), and, if possible, a traceback
from the core file.
By the way, the current release of C-Kermit is 5A(190).
