I think his major complaint is compatibility.  His claim is that SBBS and
BBBS aren't true kermit and hence those BBS's running that software aren't
up to speed to that protocol.  I can neither confirm or deny his claim but
can confirm that C-Kermit on Linux is an excellent choice for all sorts of
transfers and would supply that compatibility if requested by any user.  I
like the fact that it can be built with ssh support.  I am not sure if DOS
could handle that aspect but probably would have no problem with the
standard kermit.

Life is good,
Maurice
