The only port I could get SIO t0 work with was 2323. I tried dozens of port
numbers but that one worked so I port forwarded my router to the bbs IP. I
had to change my settings in C:\MPTN\ETC\SERVICES to get it to work. I removed
both port 23 lines and added 2323/tcp and 2323/udp. Rebooted OS/2 and it
worked. I wanted to use port 2023 but no luck. I may try 55555 and see if it
will work because I get a lot of port probers on 2323.
