You're right. I can't get e-mail to you, however your mail gets to me fine. Our mailer at the UofI does NOT like the .UUCP... I got your e-mail and vainly tried to reply, but no go. I can't think of a thing to help you now. If you have the original KERMIT385 BIN file, you could BRUN it, change the settings by hand, exit the program, and just "BSAVE KERMIT385". It automagically knows the length, and origin address. Otherwise, I think you're, for lack of a better word, SOL. I'd help, but I'm drained. It may just be a setup problem with the EXECs: they could have had errors in them when I copied them. I never even used the .install and .setup files myself, so they could be buggy. If anyone else has ANY help, please post it. I'm curious as to why Kermit doesn't like Bob. Sorry you're still having problems. Ken. krb20699@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu {InterNet}

Indeed strange since 'uiuc' is a well-known UUCP *backbone*!! and your reply arrived by way of USENET on UUCP. Of course you two MIGHT find it MUCH easier to send mail to one another by typing carefully :-) He's trying to reach you as krM20699 instead of krB20699 Are you sure your mailer won't swallow sw1e!ucoerp ? By the way, Kermit requires more than just an RS232 in slot 2. There is a choice of SEVERAL drivers. Although the Super Serial Card works for a variety of internal modems and serial cards (including a REAL SSC ;-) it doesn't work for ALL of them (see the APPLE.DOC file). Also, you can get Kermit-65 to configure itself about any way you'd like (*except* for changing the serial driver) by putting whatever commands are required into an ASCII file named KERMIT.INIT. If you use the internal SET commands and then quit and BSAVE KERMIT385, you create a Kermit that will --> ONLY <-- run on an IDENTICAL set of ROMs (another enhanced/unenhanced //e - whichever you have). If you happen to own a //c, then the Kermit you've BSAVE'd will crash into the monitor on a //e (at least an unenhanced one -- that's how I came upon this little bit of minutiae). Since Bob appears caught in the Kermit-Catch 22 (can't download a copy of Kermit without a Kermit to download with), why not 'ftp' to cunixc.cc.columbia.edu, grab APP385.1, APP385.2, download them to DOS 3.3 (with the high bit set :-) and mail him a disk he can EZ Install from scratch?

He can't mail back to me is the problem. I checked my alias for ken and it is NOT krM20699, but is krB20699 :)
