re: "lh 6pack 2 /b=9600"

Assume your using standard COM-2 ?

Does port receive, if not interrupt is wrong...
Will transmit but not receive with wrong interrupt...  

Don't see entry for number of series connected tnc's. 
Does 6pack revert to 1 with no entry ? 
I'm not certain, as I always include /c=1

What high memory manager are you using ?
Have also seen some strange effects that vary upon which 
memory manager is used, particulary dates on MH list.
