Hi.  I'm a system manager of a small cluster of VAX machines, with a file 
transfer problem involving dial-in users and KERMIT.  We have KERMIT v. 
3.0.051 running, and it seems to work fine from any networked machine that
runs it.  However, we are unable to use the protocol when calling in from
an external source (modem).  Best example is one of dialing in from a Mac
to a gandalf gate and telnetting to the VAX.  Running Kermit to download 
files from the VAX, I get a "no default terminal" message, and then no 
commands will work on Kermit.  I can't even get it to accept a SET LINE
command to define a terminal.

Any suggestions are most appreciated.  Please send correspondences via email.
