If you can make a TCP/IP connection over this setup, then you can use Kermit
as a Telnet or Rlogin client. The question is: will you also have drivers for
the device that can be used with Microsoft TCP/IP?
If not, then if a Windows COM driver is supplied, you can use that with TAPI
in K95 1.1.13 to make a modem-like connection.
