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 ;)
