   Virtual Modem for a DOS BBS

   Im working to get my old DOS/Modem BBS platform (Spitfire) back online for   
   posterity.  Ive tried NetSerial with no success.  Im able to get a connect   
   but then NetSerial locks up and the service shuts down.  I searched and found   
   two virtual modem apps, one is Virtual Modem 2.2.2 produced by fabulatech.    
   This program works wonderfully but is only sold in a pairs at $139 each ($280   
   to get the board back up). The other, Virtual Modem Pro, like NetSerial does   
   not work.   
      
   Id like to get NetSerial working as its the only free option and looks like a   
   much better app than the others. Any thoughts or suggestions for a fix for   
   Netserial or another free (or at least cheaper) app would be greatly   
   appreciated.  Please note that Spitfire is not fossil aware so I dont think I   
   will be able to get it running under Mystic or Netfoss and net3bbs.   
      
   Thanks in advance!
