Yes. We do that here. We run MS-Kermit and Trumpet Winsock
simultaneously and it works. (The IP no. and other IP info is
supplied by a bootp server.) I constantly marvel at how clever it is!

% Can these problems be circumvented?
I am not competent to answer these questions, but we don't have any
problems of this kind.
