I have loads of experience with kermit between vaxen, macs, and PCs.
None with my wife's Kaypro II.
CP/M 2.2G
Various kermits: 4.05 with adm3a, with vt52, 3.9A for Kaypro II, 4.09,
Thanks to Don Maslin.
I'm not satisfied completely with the RS-232 I have set up - the breakout
box shows that some of the connections are not happy (RTS, CTS, DTR, etc),
but for the life of me I can't figure what is wrong with them, so on to the
empirical observation and puzzle.
I have the serial I/O port J4 connected to a Supra 2400 B modem.
The modem shows TX/RD activity when I connect via kermit.
I can ATDT, log into unix and give commands, etc, and log out.
I can't see a blasted thing on the screen.
I've started kermit server running on unix and tried to send a file anyway,
but Kermit on the Kaypro just isn't getting any data or signals.
The breakout box shows activity on both sides. When I have the same
connected directly to my Mac (no modem) I can type on the Kaypro and have it
come out on the Mac screen, but not VV although I'm pretty sure the signal
is on the wire.
So it seems that CP/M is not passing the data into the kermit program.
I've read about IOBYTE, and dinked with the CONFIG program a little,
but no dice. Please, no flames! :^)
What's wrong here? Do I need a newer CP/M? (Are you listening Don? :^)
Is it a cable problem?
Thanks,
John
