Has anyone got c-kermit running on a DecStation 3100, and been able to send
very large files from a PC connected to a DecServer port? Or even a Mac on
the DecServer line. I've been struggling with it for a while now. I'm able
to send to my VMS machine without any trouble, but the RISC/ULTRIX combination
keeps getting timed out. I used the kermit from Columbia, and did a
'make bsd' to get my executables.

I am able to send files from my DecStations to the PC, but not the reverse.
Could this be because the RISC machines are much faster? Is there any way
to control this? The message that I get when it times out is,
Unable to receive an acknowledgment from the host
