NT4 Multilink PPP, Portmaster 2e

I am trying to set up multiple line connections with Windows NT 4, service
pack 3, through our Livingston PortMaster PM-2e ComOS 3.5. I have the
extremely consistent problem of the first login staying logged in, and the
second one being disconnected as soon as NT tries to "bind" the two
channels together (I forget the exact term.. linking? binding? tying?).
I am at a loss at what to do at this point, so I am asking for help from
the list. Here is my radius user description:

Prsod Password = "..",
Framed-Protocol = PPP,
Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP,
Framed-Routing = Broadcast-Listen,
Framed-MTU = 576,
Port-Limit = 2,
Simultaneous-Use = 2

I have tried commenting out oneor both of the Port limit and simulatneous
use lines, to no avail. This is over two S# ports (S5/S8, last try),
standard dialin and no special configuration on them. NT gives me an
error to the effect of data link dropped by remote system. 629 or 639, I
fried notepad a few minutes ago accidentally. Is there some setting I am
missing here? Normal serial PPP connection, two phone lines, two modems,
dialing from my machine into the portmaster on two seperate ports. I
think I've covered everything.. here's a show S0 for configuration.
