   OK so I did not use Netfoss I used ADF as I had problems with Netfoss - not   
   sure why.   
      
   I used a batch file that shipped with ADF to set it as the fossil driver with   
   COM2

   I have then had NetSerial running on COM2 and it's set to virtual modem   
   accepting incoming traffic on the port I have advertised for 21:3/100
