I'm not greatly surprised. Vicom Internet Gateway tries to
replace/supplement OT's networking, but QuickDNS Pro has already grabbed a
port using OT, and this causes a problem.

The answer is to use a startup script that puts a delay between apps. I've
got one that puts 5 seconds between apps, used on a web/dns/mail server
with cgi's, databases, etc. If you'd like to see it, send me private email.
