Subject:   repeated characters over serial connection?

Hello, again! =)

Recently (and frighteningly) CKermit 6.0/BSD has started repeating every
(expletive) character I type to the remote host.  This is the same
behavior (in Kermit and other serial programs) that I observed in SCO, so
it's not strictly a Kermit problem (and never happens when I use Kermit
on non-UNIX platforms).  What confuses is me is why, without
my having changed anything, it just started happening (after a week of
normal behavior).  Never happens when I switch back to local view of
file system -- just when I'm viewing the remote system.

Could someone tell me why this occurs, and how to change it?  I have to
reboot to OS/2 to dial out, now.  I've tried temporary adjustments
in the terminal settings, but to no avail.  

Second serial port, USR Sportster.  Other host is VT100 and up on SunOS
4 system.  I'm at 2.1.7-RELEASE.  Please just email me in private if you
think this is too simple for the list.  I couldn't find anything in the
docs on this problem.

Thanks!

Jeff
