I use a Pro-380 and have P/OS 3.1 but the only comm software I have is
Pro/Comm.  What communications protocols does this RSX BBS support?
Does it support Pro-to-Pro file transfer protocol, which is the only
protocol other than ASCII that Pro/Comm has?

There is a version of Kermit available via ftp from Columbia which is
described as PDP-11 kermit but runs on a Professional also.  Do you
