Well, in my experience, the Kermit in ProTerm is severely flawed!!  but
before you start blaming ProTerm, check your transfers out again using
Kermit65 (the ONLY way to go for Kermit transfers on the Apple...  you
can get a copy from the KERMSRV at Columbia University..  (can't
remember the exact address to there...)  (BTW, I use Kermit65
exclusively when I need vt100 emulation (ProTerm's vt100 is flawed) and
mainframe file transfer capability (As I've said before, in my
experience, ProTerm's Kermit is also flawed, I don't know if they've
fixed it in the latest release (I admit I haven't tried Kermit in the
latest))) But just to check it out, get a copy of Kermit 65 and retry
your transfers if you don't get any problems, then it was ProTerm, if
you still do, then the Kermit on the Sun is bad (inform the local
demi-gods (sysadm))
