I have been trying to connect two 486 PCs using Kermit 3.14.

When I type 'c' to connect, I get a frozen screen. I am using a null
modem cable which has 2 9pin and 2 25pin connectors (which allows
connection to com1 or com2). I have checked the cable using Dos
Interlnk.
I have set the port speeds on both PC's using the Dos mode command to
9600 and then set the port speeds in Kermit to 9600. I have tried both
com ports with no luck.

Do both PC's need to be running Kermit ?
I have successfully used Kermit to dial out through my modem but I just
get a blank screen when I try to connect to the other PC.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

TIA

Paul
