[comp.sys.next] timeout for kermit

zimmer@calvin.stanford.edu (Andrew Zimmerman) (05/06/91)

Is there a way to have a dial-out kermit automatically hang up the phone
after an amount of time?  I've accidentally tied up my phone for over 6 hours
this way. :-)  Boy, the problems of multitasking OS's.

    Oh, for those of you that get prank phonecalls, set up your modem for
autoanswer.  When I switched modems earlier this week, the new modem
was set for autoanswer.  Needless to say, I didn't get many phone calls.
