   I am extremely familiar with OS/2. Lets look at this problem logically and I    
   need some details to help.   
      
   First of all, smoking-gun test would be to install Y2KA2 (ie. any other   
   release but Nuclear/TJ's).   
      
   If that does not work, then lets look further. Is the port in Renegade locked   
   at 57600 baud with CTS/RTS enabled and XON/XOFF disabled?  Is E0 part of the   
   initialization string? What does the answer string look like? Defaults?   
      
   Also:    
      
   - Does the problem happen if NOT using SIO/X00 and using COM/VCOMM with    
   DOS-based X00 and a hardware/external modem.   
      
   - Have you tried attaching a null-modem RS232l cable between that system and    
   another and establishing a connection directly (TAB in Renegade console)   
      
   Please let me know...
