[net.dcom] VMS 4.0 and Kermit Question

forrest@ucsbcsl.UUCP ( ) (07/30/85)

I have heard that something goes wrong with kermit when you switch to
VMS 4.x. Could someone tell me what goes wrong and maybe even how
to fix it?

The problem is stems from using VTA's.  Kermit has a tiny buffer for the
terminal name, and the use of VTA's in V4 exceeds this buffer length.
Kermit dies.  The easy fix is to get a new copy of Kermit....
