Let's see if I understand. You have a DOS PC that is on a network.
You want to make a connection to it over the network from a Linux system
and then you want the DOS system to make a serial-port connection to
a third system? I'm not sure I'm seeing the picture. MS-DOS Kermit can
receive incoming connections over the Internet, e.g. on TCP port 3000:
set port tcp/ip * 3000
or it can make connections, but it can't do both at once; that is, it
can't act as a relay. Is that what you're looking for?
