"The DOSNET virtual device.

Dosnet.o is a kernel module that implements a special virtual network
device. In combination with pktdrv.c and libpacket.c, this will
enable multiple dosemu sessions and the linux kernel to be on a virtual
network. Each has it's own network device and ethernet address.

This means that you can telnet or ftp from the dos-session to your
telnetd/ftpd running in linux and, with IP forwarding enabled in the
kernel, connect to any host on your network.

Setup for virtual TCP/IP

Go to ./src/dosext/net/v-net and make dosnet.o. As root, insmod
dosnet.o. Now as root, configure the dsn0 interface (for example:
ifconfig dsn0 192.168.74.1 netmask 255.255.255.0), and add a route for it
(for example: route add -net 192.168.74.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dsn0)."

More details are in that file itself.

Hope this helps.
