Do a search on "Tactical Software"
Amercian mob who have quite a bit of software along the lines of what you
are looking for.

I was using the trial version of one of their products to allow a Windows9x
box to use a Com Port  shared by a Linux Box (Yes I realise that this is the
reverse of what you are watning to do, but I think that they had software to
do it that way as well).

Be warned, whilst nearly all of Tactical Software's products have free trial
periods I was put off using them in the long term due to very very high
purchase prices.
