Well in this show the animals don't talk (that I remember), but the
imaginary friend (O'Dowd) does.  :)

They are a couple of pretty good episodes. O'Dowd plays the part well.

Not having a port open would do it.  I am not sure you have to take your
main system offline.  I think you only have to open a "hole" in the router
for that port pointed at the IPA of the OS/2 VM.  Unless, of course, you
are attempting to use the same port on both machines, in which case your
board machine would need to come down first before you change the router.
