    Is anyone familiar enough with C-Kermit to know what this user is
talking about?  It sounds like Kermit is adding/stripping some sort of
file header.

Subject: Bug in Kermit

Just thought that I would pass on the fact that I found a bug in
Kermit on your system.  It subracts 10 bytes from GIF files loaded
from the workstation to your server (receive) and adds 10 bytes from
GIF files loaded from your server to the workstation (send).  I
reported it earlier and asked for help on how to send the GIF file but
though it might be my software.  I verified that it does the same
thing on my version of QL2 and PROCOMM.  Both of these have different
versions of KERMIT meaning the error must be on your server.  I got
around the problem by submitting the file as an attachement to my
NETSCAPE mail then opening it in the appropriate directory using PINE.

Thanks, Kim.
