Kermit Setup Help
This Module Allows you to setup the various Features of Kermit File
Transfers.
What is Kermit?
Kermit was developed to facilitate file transfers in environments
that other protocols couldn't handle. Such environments include
links that only pass 7 data bits, links that can't handle control
characters, computer systems that can't handle large blocks and
other diverse links such as those between a PC and a mainframe.
Simply move the 'X' to the desired selection, or type in the value, and
proceed to the next field. As you move from field to field you will
notice the messages at the bottom of the screen will change. These are
quick help messages.
