Well, I used to have this problem when I ran Procomm 2.4.2.  To log onto the
local Unix machine, I had to set my modem for 7 data bits, even parity, and 1
stop bit.  Then when I wanted to do a Kermit dowload, I had to manually switch
the settings to 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.  Kermit worked fine
that way.  Now, of course, I no longer user Kermit because I've been introduced
to the wonderful world of Zmodem!   :)
