Not sure I understand the problem -- are you referring to the DIS 
front end to set this?  It seems that you might have a somewhat 
strange setup to require a 4-digit base address; the entry in my 
autoexec.net is:

  attach asy 0x3f8 4 ppp sl0 4096 576 115200

Can you edit this file and manually enter the address you need?  It's 
a while since I had to configure anything in this area but have a 
vague recollection that the base addresses are

  0x3f8 - com1
  0x2f8 - com2
  0x3e8 - com3
  0x2e8 - com4

What COM port are you trying to configure?

As am I ;-)
