If its serial/modem you may not even need TCP/IP on DOS, just use a
standard comms program like commo, bananacom, telix, procomm, etc.
But this can be done with TCP/IP, if you have a PPP connection. The
connection with Arachne is fairly easy to get going with most ISPs. I
also connect a null-modem serial cable between my linux box and DOS
laptop, have setup ip_masq and PPP [actually two PPPs: one for the
ISP and one for the null-modem cable] and so still use DOS for email
and linux for just about everything else. {If I load winpkt.com I can
then use trumpet winsock under win3.11 and use those w-programs as if
I was on a real network, or dialled up directly.}
I am setting up a page for this, hopefully everything should be up in
the next few days. :)
BTW, Steven, is NCSA telnet much different to the CUTE supplied as an
Arachne Package?
