I'm trying to use kermit 8.0.206 for openstep 4.2 on a fairly new *86
box (circa year 2000). It compiles smoothly, but when i try to
use it, i get a `No such device' error.
My exact command is
wermit -l /dev/cua -m hayes
and the exact error text is
/private/dev/cua: No such device
can't open device
with error status 1.
This command (with a different device, of course) works fine on my
ancient 1992 GNU/Linux (redhat 5.2, i386) machine using the same modem,
telephone line, version of kermit, etc.
I'm not sure how to debug the problem (i suppose i could try to
tip out to check the device, but i'm just as clueless about tipping
out as i am with using kermit, so i don't know if that would be
a step in the right direction).
Thanks in advance for any advice.

PS: Thanks to everybody who works on kermit, it's been good for
a very long time, and version 8 is another step forward.
