I use Kermit all the time when transfering from VAX to the ST.  I use Uniterm
2.0e and I use the KERMIT utility on the VAX and not FTP or someother way.  I
also always use a ramdisk and I never encountered the problem - maybe the disk
you are using is full? or is the protect tab opened?  When I use KERMIT on the
vax I tell it to go into server mode then I do all the stuff through Uniterm. 
It seems that may be a hardware problem, maybe a cable is loose or something. 
Try to use a ram disk and then copy the files to the disk manually...
