Can someone help me with a problem? I'm using CKERMIT, BSD/OS 2.0,
Telebit WorldBlazer with hardware flow control locked at 57600, trying
to open /dev/tty01 which has a bidirectional getty running on it. Tip
and UUCP run fine in and out, but attempts to open the port with
kermit hang, regardless of SET CARRIER ON/OFF. Shutting off the
getty on the port allows the kermit to open the port, but that's
a hassle. Unfortunately I'm stuck having to use kermit for a 
particular remote PC connection. Has anyone solved this without
resorting to two port (one dedicated in, another out) solution?
I'm probably overlooking something :(

Thanks for any suggestions!
