I have a ViVa modem 24, a Hayes Smartmodem 2400B compatible, the _tower_
case modem.  When running pcomm under ESIX rev c, I can connect to other
systems with a setting of 2400N81.  When I try that with procomm under 
DOS, my modem justs sits there, looking pretty.  

What I end up doing is setting up as 2400E71.  This normally wouldn't
bug me, but I can't seem to kermit files.  What gives?  Is there
anything an user weilding a DOS file, just waiting to be transferred,
can do.  And no, I don't like vp/ix.

Thanks, (and please email to tdh@drd.com)
