Fair enough, and reasonable.  However, I'm still having the same problem...it 
only fires in LOCAL mode, and passes nothing over to the caller on a basic 
telnet session.
If I use the -b%B switch, it demands a FOSSIL (obviously) and fails to load; 
without the switch, it asks for the sysop to log-in in local mode.

On two  entries, Argus fires       
          max.exe  -s%b -n%n -p%h
%b Port Speed (DTE)
%n TCP/IP task number
%h Port Handle
Everyone set to COM5. Goes straight to LOCAL.
...poop...
At this point, any and all help is appreciated and accepted.
Thanks to all who have assisted to date.
