i don't know about SIO2k but regular/original SIO simply used a '-' in the last 
field... here's my device driver line for eight ports... on this system, COM1 
is the mouse, COM2 is locaked at 115200 for an analogue modem... all other 
ports are telnet ports... only the tasks that need access to vmodem have that 
driver loaded in their private properties... note the use of custom addresses, 
too... just make sure they don't step on anything else that may already be 
there...

DEVICE=X:\SIO\SIO.SYS (COM1,3F8,4,-) (COM2:115200,2F8,3,-) 
(COM3,INTERNET:3E8,NONE:4,-) (COM4,INTERNET:2E8,NONE:3,-) 
(COM5,INTERNET:1F8,NONE:3,-) (COM6,INTERNET:1E8,NONE:3,-) 
(COM7,INTERNET:4F8,NONE:3,-) (COM8,INTERNET:4E8,NONE:3,-)
DEVICE=X:\SIO\VSIO.SYS
