I have had problems doing kermit transfers between Primes and my PC ever
since I started using Crosstalk for Windows. I get duplicated letters and
files way larger than they are supposed to be. The file percent transfered
indicator goes right through the 100% and keeps on going. This
used to work with Procomm but when I got Procomm v 2.0 I can't make
it work that way either. I *can* do kermit transfers from unix just fine
but why would I when I can do zmodem?
