- Try SET SEND PACKET-LENGTH 1000 or SET RECEIVE PACKET-LENGTH 1000.
- I know at least one Kermit uses PACKET-SIZE instead of PACKET-LENGTH.
- Most Kermits accept unambiguous abbreviations for the parameters so
- SET ... PACKET may work as well. I believe you only have to set this
- option on one side; the Kermit negotiation sequence will set up both
- sides to use what was specified or the maximum available length
- (whichever is lower).
