What several implementations of Kermit actually did was shut down the Kermit server and exit Kermit on the remote end (essentially a "finish/quit" sequence). What's happening now is that the CORRECT thing is happening. You got used to the wrong thing happening. To stop the remote Kermit server, use the "finish" command. To exit the remote Kermit, connect back to the remote system and issue the "quit" or "exit" command at the remote Kermit's prompt. That'll leave you logged in, but at the Unix command prompt. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [- O] Rick Stevens ?
