Actually, I ran into a similar problem with MSKermit and Windows trying
to use com1 through bios1, after I had set kermit up and took my
communications file I just reset the port to com1 again and everything
worked fine.  Now I just use a script that sets the port twice. You might
see if you could do something similar.

  Hey, who else would you expect to be responsible for what I say?
