   Understood thanks for the explaination!   
      
   You can use DosBox with Mystic too, GameServ isn't doing anything that Mystic   
   can't there as far as I know.  Its just a matter of passing the socket handle   
   with the -socket command line to DosBox, and giving it a command to mount and   
   run the door.  Its a lot like setting up DosEmu in Intel Linux I think.   
      
   I haven't personally tried it though but I will keep this in mind as something   
   to experiement with whenever I finally work on that stuff!
