I was running DR multiuser DOS v5.1 and this morning it rolled over to 2156.
I was using the program to run a dumb terminal on my front counter.
To temporarily solve the problem I removed the terminal and replaced it with
my main computer
and  I am currently running MSDOS 6.2 to get me out of trouble.
I hate to say it but I think I shall be putting in a new computer with win98
shortly.

regards David
