---------
The MS-DOS Kermit command controlling this is SET TCP/IP ADDRESS item,
where a question mark for "item" will display choices such as an IP number,
BOOTP, DHCP, RARP, and Telebit-PPP. The distribution kit for MSK contains
examples of many setup files, including for ODI. Please see the Kermit
distribution area on Columbia for the files. Note that beta 2 of MSK v3.16 is
the preferred choice, which may be used with the MSK v3.15 documentation and
support files.
Note that choosing DHCP will also work fine with a BOOTP only server.
