    Does anyone have the combination listed above working?
I seem to be able to use _either_ FlexFax or Kermit, but
I can't use both.  If the FlexFax daemon is running, Kermit
can't open the serial port.  I'd like to hear from someone
(anyone) who does have both FlexFax and some communications
program working under some dialect of FreeBSD.  In particular:
   - Which serial port device is each one using?

        I'm getting really tired of booting DOS just to dial
out.  <sigh>

                 Any help much appreciated,
