I'm trying to use Kermit to receive a file from my company's bank.

I get into Kermit and enter
 >set modem type usrobotics
 >set line /dev/ttyc
 >dial 9,xxxxxxx
The bank prompts me to enter a password which I do.
The bank tell me to be ready to receive.
But then while the bank is trying to send me the file it times out.

Do I have to enter 'receive' in the command prompts before I dial out?

If you have any insights I would greatly appreciate the feedback.

Thanks,
Kathy
