Well I odn't know much about Telix, but I do know that you can run a simple
DOS session over the com port by simply doing C:\COMMAND.COM < COM1 > COM1
on the local machine.  This will redirect all input and output over the com
port.  But only DOS simplistic programs will work, like Edlin.  If you want
to run anything worthwhile over the com port, you will need something like
DoorWay which will let anything run over the com port, and I mean anything.
