Bill,
Begin your hunt at your DC's board - it's right here :-)

If you want the latest version released, I've got OKER_105 here, of course, 
the latest being 12/87. :-) It definitely interfaces well with Max, I'm also 
using OATE_100 for an ASCII protocol, by the same author, Vince Perrellio. 
Installing these was simple, since there's examples for both commented out in 
protocols.ctl. :-)

 Leo, I believe that the current version of HyperP that we installed
      is 1.1e
      Which protocols needed the BNU fossil temporarily disabled?
      If the BNU is off, then its Carrier Detect feature is off, then
      do we run the risk of hanging the system if someone "aborts" or
      "pulls the plug" during a transfer?
 PS.  I think that we better stop using the          |XXX|X|X|X|X|X||XX
      high ascii characters in this conference.     o|XXX|X|X|X|X|X||XX
      My signature probably contains regular         |XAugust AbolinsXX
      ascii characters. (Must be the dang PCjr eh?)
      Your signature turned out like this:
        X LeO X
       ___
        X SLMR 2.1 X You didn't say what you said I said you said

 X DeLuxe2 1.12 #10137 X ------------------------------ E = mc2 + 3% -----

I had a similar problem, I use a non-standard IRQ on comport 1 (ran out of 
IRQ's and did not have the money for a digiboard).. 
Solved the problem in the batch file, here is rdsz.bat
Rem echo off
Set dszlog=%1
if %2 == 1 goto d1
dsz port %2 speed %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
goto end
:d1
dsz port 03f8,5 speed %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
:end
Protocal CTL(in this case) sends the port as %2, I could not figure out the 
statement to change it with online(such as if %2 == 1 then %2 = 03f8,5) so I 
did a branch. In your case you could check for which port and change add the 
dos batch coding to correct it.
I am really not sure I understand the problem with a floating fossil. Unless 
the protocal has to run at a locked speed? Both of my fossils are floating 
and max passes the speed parameter using the %W on exit..
