My use has been limited to modems and ethernet. The tutorial at the url below discusses the use of a null modem and -l option for serial console login: http://www.freebsdhowtos.com/84.html Also, you can find lots of information regarding kermit using the man page and at: http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck80.html > which i can't remember at the moment, i've never been able to get it > to terminal.

I use kermit and ssh over ethernet: 1. Start kermit with the command 'kermit' (no options or addresses needed). 2. At the kermit prompt, execute your ssh command. For example: 'ssh 192.168.63.1' 3. Once the ssh connection has been made, start kermit at the other location within the ssh connection. You can then send and receive multiple files using kermits globbing functions and it will all occur securely over ssh. Best of luck, Andrew Gould
