Thanks for the Hint!
This gave me motivation to do some further tests, and i found out that the
problem was in my old initialization file which worked for Kermit 6 but not
for Kermit 8.

I used the output command to do modem initialization and to set the ISDN MSN
numbers(for callback). The following "kermrcS4" init file worked well with
kermit 6.
(i used this command to start  kermit: kermit -y kermrcS4)
...
out AT&F\{13}
input 1 OK
out ATZ\{13}
input 1 OK
out AT&o0\{13}
input 1 OK
out AT&L1\{13}
input 1 OK
out AT&ZI0=29\{13}
input 1 OK
out AT&ZI1=29\{13}
input 1 OK
out AT&ZI2=29\{13}
input 1 OK
...

Now I use the "set modem command init-string" instead the "output" command
and this works on Kermit 8.
SET MODEM COMMAND INIT-STRING
AT&FZ&o0&L1&ZI0=29&ZI1=29&ZI2=29&ZI3=29&ZI4=29&ZI6=29\13

Sure now the initialization is now done shortly before the dialout happens
and erlier it was done when i started kermit, but this is OK so far.

If there is better solution which can do the MSN settings... during kermit
start, then i would prefer it!
Otherwise i let it as it is now.

In my opinion the problem is that the zyxel modem is somtimes not
answering(or answering too slow) and then it happens that the OK from a
previous command comes back while dialing. And the result is:
> > ATD56913
> >
> > OK
> > DIAL Failure: 20:50:42:  "OK"
I tried also some other "input" commands, for example: input -1 OK\13\10
and the failure happend rarely but it was not completly solved!
And maybe the reason why my USR Modem is working perfect(also with output
commands), could be because it is an analog modem and there is no need to
set so much MSN numbers.

Thanks/Regards
Walter
