Yes, I have it working fine here.  I use the following SIO line:
DEVICE=F:\SIO\SIO.SYS (2:115200,2F8,3,-) (3:57600,3E8,7,-) 
(4,INTERNET:2E8,NONE:3,-)
DEVICE=F:\SIO\VSIO.SYS
DEVICE=F:\SIO\VX00.SYS
The most important part is the batch file to start up Telix:
Internet.cmd (I keep this in my D:\comm\telix directory)
IFCONFIG lo 204.49.69.15
start /c f:\sio\vmodem.exe
mode com4 dtr=on
telix sdial cinternet.cfg finternet.fon
killem vmodem
exit 
The IFCONFIG lo ###.##.##.## numbers are your IP address (your server may 
have one assigned dynamically, but mine is static. A dummy number might 
work(?)
Telix will require the 'mode' command line or it will not recognise the port. 
I'm sure you're familiar with the sdial salt. I've set up a separate 
telix.cfg, and fone.fon to list the IP addresses instead of the landline 
numbers.  This is much more convenient than trying to put everything into one 
phone directory mixing IP addresses and regular phone numbers.  I just use an 
icon in my internet folder to start everything. Killem is just a convenience 
to get rid of vmodem when I'm done, omit if you don't use killem.exe.  If 
this doesn't do it, e-mail me at rnewsom@gnt.com and I'll zip up my 
internet.cfg and internet.fon.
Why use Telix?  It's paid for!  ;)
