NY, NY Lines: 11 Anyone know how to make an null modem cable or should I just go and buy one? What are the mechanics of xfering between one pc and another pc? I plan to use kermit at both ends to transfer my files from my older 8088 to my newer 386 25mhz. I don't need a modem (I'm sure) but what speed should I tell kermit its running at on the 8088 to get optimal data xfer rates? any other tips would be appreciated. many thanks joec@morgan.com
