Look in your "Using C-Kermit" manual. The section on program termination
(pages 463-465) it tells you all about this (found by looking up EXIT in
the index). The command is "set exit warning off". In case you don't have
a copy of the manual, see:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck60manual.html
for information on how to get it.
Meanwhile, you shouldn't be getting the warning in the first place if (a)
the modem is not presenting the CD signal (which it shouldn't be in this
case), and (b) your Kermit implementation is allowed to access modem
signals. But you didn't say which version of C-Kermit you have, on which
platform.
