The problem I have is that when passing the com port to Max/2 in
EXEBBS.CMD, Max returns with a message say that it cannot load the comm
driver.  When I pass al lthe contents of the % variables to a log file, I
get the following:

{0}[c:\ftn\fd] type fd.out
Speed: 57600
Port: 1
Event Time: 10080
Task #: 1
Connection Msg: /ARQ/TEL_FROM_127.0.0.1
CID: N/A
Port Handle: 12

I pass the port number as well as the speed and handles to Maximus/2 but it
still doesn't accept the connection and I get the following error message
is the logs for this particular node:

{0}[c:\ftn\fd] type \max\Max.Log

+ 06 Sep 23:51:53 MAX  Begin, v3.01 (task=1)
! 06 Sep 23:51:53 MAX  SYS0032:  Cannot open com port (com1)
! 06 Sep 23:51:53 MAX  Communications driver not properly installed

However, whenever I run Maximus/2 in WFC mode, I do not get the above error message.

--- Maximus/2 3.01
