output command in MS-Kermit 3.10

Hi, I'm using my newly acquired MS-Kermit 3.10 to connect to my Unix
box.  The PC from which I am running kermit is connected to a terminal
server through a device sharing unit.  The device sharing unit
(Buffalo box, from Buffalo products, OR) has 8 named ports and you
select which one you would like to connect to by sending a command
looking like:

@FRE;@portname;@FIX;   (in my case @FRE;@SCCTERM?;@FIX;)

Previously, I have sent that command before getting into kermit.  I
would now like to put into my mskermit.ini file an output command to
send it automatically.  When I did so, I got the following error:

?Indirect file not found error

I thought maybe the mskermit.ini can't be a script (i.e. can't do
input and output commands), so I tried putting it in another file and
taking it, but that didn't work either.  Is there something about the
string I'm sending which Kermit doesn't like?

Please reply via e-mail.  As I don't read comp.os.msdos.apps.

Thanks
