I'd like to thank all the folks who responded to my "I clobbered /dev/cua"
post.  By general concensus:
    mknod /dev/cua c 11 192
    chown uucp.wheel /dev/cua
    chmod 600 /dev/cua
and delete /usr/spool/uucp/LCK/LCK.cua.

However, after doing this (actually the LCK file didn't exist, which meant
I actually did exit kermit earlier) kermit still wouldn't talk via /dev/cua
to my modem.  Neither could I use /dev/ttya.  So, I suspect my A serial port
is bad.  (This wouldn't be unreasonable.  I had some quirky behavior prior
to this event.  In my ignorance, I attributed it to instabilities in bash.
???)  Anyhow my local tech rep is investigating.  I hope I don't have to
transport my Cube AGAIN (I think it likes car rides).  Any further advice
would be appreciated.
