Hi.  After a lot of confusion, I think we determined that the "kermit"
currently installed for Solaris in the modem locker was probably
copied out of the release at the time, which is why it's such an old
version.

I've rebuild kermit for Solaris 2.4 from the sources in the modem
locker.  Please try using

	/afs/.athena.mit.edu/system/modem/arch/sun4m_54/bin/kermit

(sorry for the long path) and let us know if it works better.  If it
does, we'll release the locker so that just running "kermit" does the
right thing.

(For the Athena 8.2 release, we'll be upgrading kermit to a still more
recent version, and putting it back into the release.  But that won't
affect you for a while yet.)
