Kermit Parameters

Clicking the Kermit... button in the Initiate File Transfer dialog box will cause the
Kermit Parameters dialog box to be displayed, as shown above. This enables you
to set parameters specific to the Kermit protocol. Note that the Kermit protocol has
additional parameters which can be set in the General Settings dialog box, as
described in the previous section.
Settings in this dialog box affect how outbound and inbound packets are treated.
These settings may need to be reflected by the remote Kermit as well.
Start of Packet
Factory default: CTRL-A (i.e. SOH)
This specifies the character which is used to mark the start of a Kermit packet. The
character should be changed if the remote host intercepts it.
Timeout in secs
Factory default: 5
This specifies how long the remote Kermit should wait before timing out.
Padding count
Factory default: 0
This specifies the number of padding characters to be sent before the packet.
Padding char
Factory default: CTRL-@ (i.e. NULL)
This specifies the character to use for padding.
