- I have the same problem. I use C-Kermit for OS/2 to connect to a unix machine.
- Whenever I switch to any dos full screen session, the connection seems to
- be dead. I'm running OS/2 v2.0+SP and the 9600 modem is on com3.
- Does anyone know how to fix this?
- This problem does NOT occur on my home machine which has a 2400
- modem on com2.
