You must have a different version of kermit, I can only have a maximum of 94 character packets. Anyway the packets can be changed by typing on your UNIX or other machine: set send packet n { n = # of chars (90) } Also using kermit with PROCOMM you should use "kermit -x -i" on the server. Hope this helps. Tom Currey tcurrey@x102c.harris-atd.com
