   That's what I thought, I had issues with a little ditty called sexpots to allow   
   dial up calls on pretty much any BBS. I couldn't get VBox to set up the right   
   ports, then when I got an external modem, I tried to pass through COM 1 and it   
   still didn't work, since the program is so small I just installed it on the   
   host and am using it that way.. This is going to sound crazy, but you might   
   want to try sex pots and install it on the host then let it contact your BBS   
   via Telnet.. It works for me, my BBS is on a different computer in a VM and it   
   gets through every time..
