I have my archimedes connected to a DECstation using a null-modem cable.
The terminal mode of kermit shows that it is working, but the file
transfer times out.  Why won't it transfer?  I have checked all the
parameters and both machines show *exactly* the same thing!

Why do I have this problem with the arc?  I used to use BBC kermit with
my BBC all the time and *NEVER* had any file transfer problems.

My only guess is that the arc is expecting 7-bit data while the dec is
sending 8 bit data.  Both are set to binary mode but I see no way of
setting the arc's data-bit/stop-bit setup.  Nor is there any indication
of what it *is*.

HELP! :-()
