Part 6: Can't Send Files!

After successfully copying mskermit to the IBM PC I thought I was ready to start transferring files!

First I started C-Kermit on my laptop and set it up to receive files:

set line com3           ; or /dev/ttyUSB0 on Linux
set speed 4800
set parity none
set flow none
set carrier-watch off
set modem type none
receive

Then on the IBM PC I started mskermit and typed in:

set line com1
set speed 4800
set parity none
set flow none
set handshake none
set modem none
send LE.BAT

And...nothing. What went wrong?
