I'm not running Maximus right now, but I am running Mystic BBS/DOS for both
dial-up and telnet under Win 2000, and I had it running very well before
under both NT 4.0 and XP Pro.

I use a combination of COM/IP with it's virtual modem drivers to serve the
telnet side, and Winfossil/NT as the the fossil driver for the dial-up
(with BinkleyTerm/DOS 2.60 as frontend) and the telnet nodes. It should
work equally as well for Maximus/DOS 3.x as it does for Mystic/DOS.

I do also still have my old Maximus BBS archived on my BBS machine, and
could fire it up to confirm for you that it works, if you like.
