I have kermit working on my minix system, and it talks to the modem just fine (on the /dev/tty1 or dos com1: line), but, Here are some questions for any kermit gurus: (1) When I log onto the big unix box using kermit, some of the ansi sequences don't work. The colours work ok, but clear to end of line and clear to end of screen don't work. Do I need to change my termcap file? (Note: kermit running under dos doesn't have this problem, but I don't wanna run dos. Also note that the termcap seems correct since vi /* elvis */ runs flawlessly.) (2) When I do `set line /dev/tty1`, I get an error message like "no read permission on lock file". I can't remember exactly what the error message is, but I think you get the idea. Is there some special directory that I should have set up for kermit to use? I assume that kermit needs to mark the port in use, so another process can't mess with it. Do I need to have the permissions set up some special way? How? Ken Hendrickson N8DGN/6 kjh@usc.edu ...!uunet!usc!pollux!kjh

This question didn't get answered, so I'll pester everybody with it again: (1) When I log onto the big unix box using kermit, some of the ansi sequences don't work. The colours work ok, but clear to end of line and clear to end of screen don't work. Do I need to change my termcap file? (Note: kermit running under dos doesn't have this problem, but I don't wanna run dos. Also note that the termcap seems correct since vi /*elvis*/ runs flawlessly.)
