Bill, I have got to tell you that I think you are nuts for sticking
with Kermit through all of this.
There is one combination of commercial products that claim that they
can redirect a 16-bit DOS serial port to a Telnet port over TCP/IP. But
I was never able to get them to work.
My second comment is that after using OS/2 for so long, why are you
going to use Win95? You should really install NT.
Then if you have two physical comm ports run a Null modem connector from
one to the other. Let MS-DOS Kermit access one port and Kermit 95
the other. Setup K95 so that it uses its Bi-directional Printer support
on the second port. Then let K95 make the Telnet connection. That way
K95 can handle be used as the VT320 emulator and MS-DOS Kermit can act
as the Tek terminal when necessary.
