???? The only time I had problems with COM/IP was with Win98 using the
built in fossil; once I put WinFossil in it's place it zoomed.  COM/IP and
WinXP just live together perfectly using the internal fossil!

Another option is NetFoss.  I've been beta testing it and it's improved
dramaticly; the only current limitation is it does not support binary
transfers but that should be implemented in the next major release.  If you
want to use the DOS based BBS you'll need a TCP/IP front end like Argus or
Manning TelServ (even synchronet may work) for the intitial "pick
up"...  Best part, all mentioned is free.  www.netfoss.com
