Buy a PLIP cable, and use the crynwr (http://crynwr.com/) packet driver
for PLIP, and get telnet, FTP, and any other apps you might need that
use the packet driver. It's not perfect, but it works. I don't know if
there are NDIS/ODI drivers for PLIP floating around the 'net...but if
such things exist, they'll allow you to use all the Windows networking
tools, as opposed to packet driver apps (which are kinda limited).
