You have to have kermit open the modem line with O_NDELAY and then set CLOCAL until a carrier is detected. Since the modem has not yet made a connection, no carrier will be present and the open will block waiting for DCD to be asserted. Kermit has a `modem' flag, which can be set. Did you remember to issue the command 'set modem-dialer' before doing a 'set line' or 'dial' command? Giving 'set modem-dialer' is supposed to do all of this [ for your version of Kermit ] for you. -- John F.

Haugh II rpp386!jfh I set my system up with the following kermit script: set modem-dialer hayes set line /dev/tty1A set baud 2400 &etc... And it locks tty1A and it works fine.
