Thanks to everyone that helped me on my problems getting my files back to
my Atari ST from the mainframe.  Here is what worked.

I put the the kermit file server in binary mode doing the following:

$ kermit
ckermit> set file type binary
ckermit> server

And then putting the Uniterm program in kermit server mode.
First: 

   I had to go to the setup mode and make sure that I was using CRC error
checking.  THen I also bumped up the packet size to 1000 (not necessary but
really convenient).

Next:

Control-T
Click on binary mode.
Click on the rest of the menus for whatever I want to do.


This only worked under UNIX.  I tested it under HP UX and Amdahls UTS. It 
worked fine under those, but I never got it to work on the VAX runnig VMS
no matter what suggestions that I tried.

I reveice about 30 suggestions and about 10 of them suggested the above.
Thanks to everyone who helped.
