Sorry I didn't state that right: I would like to upgrade, but I have to get my
files on the VMS system. To try it, I tried zip.exe (54k large) as a try-out.
Didn't succeed.

In that file I found this:
VAX AXP Network
CKVVKER.XXX CKVAKER.XXX No network support, VMS 5.x and later
^^^^^^
I think this must be CKVKER.EXE. I couldn't find any other file in kermit/bin.
But as I already stated: I can't upgrade at the moment because I can't upload
any file to the system.

Hmmm, thanks for the tip, I hope to use it in future.....
