Howdy,

I'm looking for a program that intercepts stuff sent to a serial port like
COM1 and sends it over ethernet to some host.  I've got a packet driver 
installed.  The idea is to send files to be printed via TCP/IP to a Unix
host for spooling.  Is there a TSR that will do this, or something like it.
I can write the program for the Unix box, but not for DOS.  Thanks plenty.
