I am having a problem with transferring files.

I have a USRobotics dual standard modem at home, and an identical
modem at school.  My machine at  home is a NeXT station and at
school I am connecting to a sparcstation.  I am attempting
to transfer binary files using C-kermit 5A.  The wierd thing is,
I can transfer files from the sparc to the NeXT just fine, but
when I attempt to go the other way nothing happens. I just get

C-Kermit>send dgh.tar.Z 
SF
dgh.tar.Z => dgh.tar.Z, Size: 18381

X to cancel file,  CR to resend current packet
Z to cancel group, A for status report
E to send Error packet, Ctrl-C to quit immediately: AN%N%N%N%N%N%N
Resending packet %%N
Resending packet %%N
Resending packet %E

If, at home I connect a Mac to the modem instead of the NeXT, the transfer
works just fine.  Two weeks ago this worked just fine.
Our sys administrator at MIT tells me that nothing has
changed at school, and, as far as I can tell, nothing has changed
here at home.  

I am at a loss. ANY suggestions would be welcome.
