Subject: demacs, MS Kermit and Ethernet conflict

I've run in to a conflict between demacs (which uses a modified version of an
old release of djgpp), MS Kermit 3.12 and my Ethernet software.  After running
demacs, Kermit is unable to make an Ethernet connection.  Demacs does not
immediately disable NCSA software, but once Kermit has failed to connect, NCSA
programs won't work either.  The only fix I have found is to reboot.  Is
anyone else using this combination of software, either successfully or
unsuccessfully?  Any suggestions on how to fix it?  I suspect that the problem
is due to demacs fiddling with the interrupt vector table, but bracketing
demacs with MARK/RELEASE doesn't help.
