I'm trying to move a script from K95 to C-kermit.
The connection uses "telnet pilot.msu.edu:105" which works
with K95 and C-kermit 6.1.193, but fails under 7.0

I added some commands to "set telopt ... refused" for terminal-type,
naws, new-environment and kermit. That helped, but the connection
is still eventually refused, waiting for the "DO Kermit" response.

I tried the /raw option, that didn't help. Using the /nowait option starts
the connection, but then it acts weird a few minutes later.

Do I need to use the "set telnet bug binary-me-means-u-too" options?
I don't quite understand the manual information on those...
===============
The port 105 option above connects to a CSO (directory) server.  When
it works, a command like "query name=aa" will return info about people
with last names starting with aa. (Try it if you want)

I would like to use 7.0 for the Kerbang scripts and command line
arguments.

Thanks for any help!
