Not exactly, Andy.  I use Vmodem here such that it triggers Injoy on
demand.  It does not require a connection before loading, just that
tcp/ip be up and running.  By default it uses the 'well-known' telnet
port ( 23 ) but you can assign it to any port you want via command
line parms.  I run it on port 60 which is defined to be 'user defined'
to avoid conflicts with telnetd.  That lets me have port 23 available
full time (and simutaneously active with Vmodem) for incoming telnet. 
I can have several telnet sessions and Vmodem all going at once.  Like
you, I assign it an SIO port that is out of the way but I don't assign
the virtual interrupt since I never use it with DOS programs anyway.
