We have had the same problem with EVEREX internal modems and Kermit here
at U of I, and so far, there seems to be no solution.  My guess is that
the EVEREX uses some non-standard chips that Kermit won't recognize.  I
think you will have to settle for another software package.

It may be worth a message to Joe Doupnik (sp?) at Utah State (he did most
of the coding on Kermit 2.29).  His net address is JRD@USU.BITNET.

ARRRRGH!  We hashed this out to death many months ago.  I personally have
solved this particular problem with this particular modem several times now.
Looking in my crystal ball, I can see that you are using it in an AT.
Correct?  The bus in the AT is too fast for modems designed for PCs, mainly
because the AT bus isn't ... quite ... like the PC's.

Assuming you have the source code and can recognize the IN and OUT opcodes,
all you have to do is add 2 NOP instructions after each access to the serial
chip in order to let the bus settle, and then reassemble the appropriate
modules and relink the program.

Subject: 9600 baud setups.

I'd like some information from whoever has a 9600 baud setup on their
mainframe system.

We have a Microcom 9624C in a rackmount HDMS system and similar standalone
models for the use of our programmers.  We are considering expanding this
arrangement.  The Microcom V.32 model has a hefty price and upgrades to
our 9624C are nearly as hefty.  Worse still V.42 upgrades many be out in
the summer.  What do you do?

Does anyone have similar out there?
