Using the latest available Kermits on the VAX and the Mac, as I have been for a while now successfully, I suddenly failed with a "zchki Failed: -37" message. I am running 4.1/5.5, and a Mac 512Ke w/2MB and a MacBottom serial HD20. This error occurs very frequently nowadays, and I can't find a description of the message anywhere. Any ideas?? Thanks...Gary

I do know that MacKermit had a number of troubles with later systems, however... --Rich **The opinions stated herein are my own opinions and do not necessarily represent the policies or opinions of my employer (THINK Technologies, Inc).
