Kermit doesn't log you out of anything. Your system logs you out because
you were idle. Many systems have this property.

Kermit is not logging you out, really. Maybe the other program has been
configured to send something periodically when you are idle. You can
configure K95 to do that too.

:
Use K95's SET TERMINAL IDLE <seconds> <chars-to-send>, for example:
SET TERMINAL IDLE 600 { }
This sends a space if you have not typed anything for 10 minutes.
