re: Kermit and ASTM protocols

Hi,

There are many variations on Kermit. It is not a popular file transfer
protocol, so most implementations use the simplest form. Do you know what
version of Kermit is being used?

I suspect that the best way to try to do this is to use a product like Sax
Comm Objects 8 (not the .NET version, which does not support Kermit) -- look
on www.sax.net.
