Sure, sorry about that had the wrong setting on the message area.
To rephrase the question. I am currently using Wildcat! Winserver with
Platinum Xpress as well as running Internet Rex 2.31 to connect to
various nets. Any of my nets that use VMODEM I have no problem with
however the nets that I use BlinkP for (Intrnet Rex) I am unable to do
any areafix or filefix requests from. As an example below is what I am
getting returned with valid commands.

First issue. You need to downgrade to v2.29 of Internet Rex. And VMODEM and NetSerial are two different things as there is a product that has been out longer than NetSerial called SIO for OS/2 that has a VMODEM.EXE virtual modem driver that listens on port 23 and 3141 (for 8-bit vmodem to vmodem telnet connections).

however the nets that I use BlinkP for (Intrnet Rex) I am unable to do
any areafix or filefix requests from. As an example below is what I am getting returned with valid commands.

Again, try switching to Internet Rex to see if that helps. And what are you using to enter your filefix and areafix requests? The BBS itself or pxtools.exe?

I can try the downgrade. Will I need to re-configure or will it allow me to just take the
existing config.

And I was using the BBS itself, but once I started using PXTools the problem went away. So
it doesn't look like its IREX but if you think downgrading it does anything I will try that, but
again as of now everything seems to be working.
