I know this thread is ancient... but I am curious about this...
Lets just pretend I am crazed.. ok.. so its not so much pretend...
So I sudo apt-get install dosbox
Then lets say... you put this in the dosbox conf
[serial]
serial1=modem listenport:3141
Then you mount up a C drive with FD etc... installed
XOO loaded up for a FOSSIL and point FD at that FOSSIL with COM1 and dosbox
doing its virtual modem thing...
And thus **** potentially *** FD would run via net versus DU???
Have you done this???
I might try it after I rectify some things, due to the idea that is swirling in
my brain.. this is why you should not read echos late at night! :) ;)
I find this very interesting... although I think there are some huge problems
in getting FD to actually do this ie: dial something like: fidonet.me.domain
