   I put a lot of effort into this sort of setup. I used tcpdrv (the Trumpet TCP   
   driver) rather than mtcp and wrote a bunch of hybrid pascal/assembly to   
   interface between the dos packet driver it provides, and a fake fossil driver.   
      
   I got Synchronet for DOS to answer with it, and it was pretty bad.   
      
   If I can find the code I'll see if I can't make sure it still works and link   
   it somewhere. But if you haven't picked it up, I'm not really fond of the   
   concept anymore ;)
