If you have setup your door.sys to pass the dos com port, then that's the 
problem.. you need to pass it the %P (port handle) for OS/2.
a soulution is to make a dos doorsys.mec and an os/2 doorsys.mec .. (name 
them differently ;) ) with your dos one looking like this:
[delete]c:\max\node%k\Door.Sys
[open]c:\max\node%k\Door.Sys
