I've never used kermit, so I'm not understanding how that would work in the particular situation we're talking about: - Linux guest on z/VM - No working Linux network connection - So, only connection is via the z/VM TCP/IP stack - You want to pull a file from the Linux guest, edit it, and push it back What pieces would have to be where, and how would connections get made, etc.?
