subject: Re: Renegade on OS/2 with SIO

I am extremely familiar with OS/2. Lets look at this problem logically and I 
need some details to help.

First of all, smoking-gun test would be to install Y2KA2 (ie. any other
release but Nuclear/TJ's).

If that does not work, then lets look further. Is the port in Renegade locked
at 57600 baud with CTS/RTS enabled and XON/XOFF disabled?  Is E0 part of the
initialization string? What does the answer string look like? Defaults?

Also: 

- Does the problem happen if NOT using SIO/X00 and using COM/VCOMM with 
DOS-based X00 and a hardware/external modem.

- Have you tried attaching a null-modem RS232l cable between that system and 
another and establishing a connection directly (TAB in Renegade console)

Please let me know...

Nick
