I know of no problems with a 2 deqna configuration.  In fact, we had
such a setup ere in our office and I do not recall having to do
anything special.  

The problems you report with ps and netstat sound like you were
running a kernel whose name was something other than "/vmunix" but
neglected to tell them that...
