   Check the setup menu in Procomm, you need 8-bit quoting on, make sure
   that your block check is the same as the kermit you are talking to ( i.e
   1,2, or 3 byte), and be sure your parity and data bits are set correctly 
   in the dial menu for the system you are communicating with. I have used
   it with 4.2BSD kermit and with kermit on VM once I got the initial setup
   right.  Feel free to E-mail if you have more trouble.
   B.T.W.  X-modem is quite a bit faster if it's available, I have a PD program
   to generate Procomm scripts so you can autodownload a number of files with
   whatever protocol you wish.
