Can I mount a serial port from my Win box?  I have a Linux server
samba'd to a Win98 box.  What I want to do is mount a com port on the
win macine to linux. Maybe something on this order (though this does
not work)  mount //Win98/com3 /mnt/winmodem
( Oh and would be a BIG aid if I could specify the win IRQ)

tnx in advance
