  Are these internal modems ?  - this is likely to be your problem. 

  "But you should be aware that Kermit does not necessarily work with any 
   particular internal modem, even if it works with an external modem on
   the same system"  - 'Kermit, A file Transfer Protocol', p.24, F. DaCruz

 - internal modems (can be said to) simulate the RS232 interface; I assume
   that that is the problem here.
