depends on which kermit you are running on the BSD side.  i use C-Kermit
4C(057) with procomm2.3 all the time with no problems.  there ARE a couple
gotchas, tho.  i have to run procomm with even parity (xxxx-E-7-1) to do
terminal emulation without greek.  (i tried using the translate table to
convert all the >=0x80 characters to ascii; this made the screen readable,
but the terminal emulation wouldn't work -- ie, escape sequences were
mis-interpretted).  remember to change this to no parity (xxxx-N-8-1)
before a transfer.

i had the same problem until i changed the switches on my hayes 1200b
to make it raise and lower DCD properly.  if procomm sees DCD high after
an ALT-H, it will assume the hang-up failed.
